Ep. 42

In this episode of InCamp, I sit down with Nathan Endicott to talk about growing up in a hunting family and how those early camp experiences shaped the way he approaches the outdoors today. We get into the real differences between blacktail and whitetail hunting, what changes when you cross state lines, and how elk hunting forces you to level up—both mentally and physically.

Nathan shares why fitness matters when hunts get steep, long, and unforgiving, and how preparation off the mountain shows up when it counts. We also talk about faith, community, and how hunting has a way of putting life into perspective. From family traditions to chasing elk and blacktails, this conversation is rooted in experience, lessons learned the hard way, and a genuine love for being outside.
