EP 508: John Barklow Knowledge Through Storms

June 11, 2021 by Cody Rich

This week Barklow joins me to talk about all kinds of stuff he knows very well, preparedness and survival. John Barklow has spent his life putting himself in nasty weather and mountainous conditions. He is no stranger to the good old fashion suffer-fest. In this podcast we cover a lot about altitude and how it can make or break a trip. We also cover some great frameworks for not only surviving but ultimately thriving in the mountains.

Barklow has been doing a huge favor to outdoorsman by publishing some great IGTV episodes breaking down so many ideas behind why one piece of gear over another. Do yourself a favor and go follow his IG account to learn some great woodsman-ship skills and also to just give yourself a deeper understanding of survival gear.

Todays podcast brought to you by Argali Outdoors. Argali Outdoors just launch a really cool new product that I am stoked to tell you guys about. Argali makes amazing outdoor products like their lightweight knives and killer game bags, but now Brad and the team just launch a product that is truly revolutionary. Argali has created the ultimate backcountry hunting belt. They are calling it the Kodiak Belt and this thing is awesome. I am a huge fan of gear that does multiple jobs and that is exactly what this does. Meet the first belt that allows you to sharpen, shape, and hone your broad heads, knives and even fishing hooks. This is one of those genius designs that you see and instantly think. Why didn’t I think of that. Brad and the Argali crew knocked it out of the park with this product. The belt is a very low profile slim design that looks great for every day use to functional as backcountry gear. Pre order yours before they run out of stock. Use the Code TRO on anything in the Argali store and you will be entered to win a free Argali knife to be drawn at the end of June.

 Backcountry Fuel has launched a new box option. I don’t know why we didn’t do this earlier but now, if you aren’t into backpacking meals you can just get a monthly box loaded with snacks, no meals just snacks. For those who had a hard time justifying the box because they didn’t use the meals now you have zero excuses. Sign up for the new big foot snack box and get high quality outdoor snacks delivered right to your door. Whether you are hoarding boxes of for hunting season or making it rain empty snack rappers in the back seat of your ford ranger I won’t judge. Sign up now to get yourself the best subscription box there is. Head over to www.BackcountryFuelBox.com and use the code “TRO” at checkout.
