About this episode
We sit down with renowned BC hunter, hunting ambassador, filmmaker, and backcountry legend Adam Foss. The Foss family name is synonymous with chasing adventure and achieving remarkable success in the mountains.
This is Part Two of our Mountain Ready series, where we dive into the thoughts and preparations leading up to the sheep opener—topics that resonate with anyone planning a mountain hunt.
Adam covers a wide range of topics that will help set you up for success in the mountains. We explore what success really means, and discuss mountain hunt preparation, planning new hunts, mapping unfamiliar areas, selecting reliable hunting partners, and, of course, gear. As a recognized gear expert, Adam shares his insights on essential equipment—including clothing, emergency gear, sleeping bags, boots, and much more.
Adam’s passion and respect for the mountains always shine through. He offers invaluable advice not just on achieving success, but also on how to push through adversity and even enjoy the experience when energy and morale run low.
