Today’s guest is one many of you have been asking for oh-so-long. He’s one of the top travel, outdoor, and landscape photographers in the world, bringing us to some of the most untamed and powerful landscapes in the pursuit of powerful stories, hidden surf, and a good adventure.
When you live for the wild, you start to crave more than just the view—you crave the experience. Our guest today doesn’t just capture the outdoors; he lives it. From remote islands hammered by salt and wind to alpine ridges that demand every ounce of grit, his lens follows where most wouldn’t dare to hike. And when the day’s done, the camera is packed away, but the adventure continues—often around a campfire, under stars no city light has ever touched.
Out in the open, food becomes ritual. Not just a meal, but a celebration of survival and presence. That’s where good gear matters. Whether it’s searing fresh-caught fish over a flame or slow-roasting something hearty after a long day of trekking, the right tools make the difference. Chiasson Smoke has become a favorite for those in the know—offering rugged firepits and efficient rocket stoves that fit right into the rhythm of the wilderness. Their accessories aren’t flashy—they’re functional, built for those who prefer their kitchen somewhere between a cliffside and a forest floor.
Of course in this episode we get into his new book, At Glacier’s End, but we also get into some meaty topics such as:
- the power of exploring personal projects and how it can shape new opportunities
- the sacrifice that comes as pursing your passions
- personal growth and how it evolves over time
- and so much more
Enjoy!
