In the Seam with JP Ross Fly Rods & Co. fly fishing and much more

Today I have a long awaited interview with my bud Chris Steed. Chris is a terrific angler and it was a pleasure to have him on the podcast. Honestly, this is just a fun listen of two guys talking about fly fishing. Chris fishes all over the northeast and just last year I had the pleasure of fishing with him for a bit in the Adirondack Mountains. He constantly sends me pics of him fishing in his home state of Massachusetts. He also is beginning to venture into New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont. I hope you enjoy it. JP

Tonight I share  five extraordinary encounters with unexplained forest beings across five decades and thousands of miles of American wilderness, told by witnesses who never met yet describe remarkably similar experiences.Olympic Peninsula, Washington - 1968 & 1973 A fire lookout witnesses a massive bipedal creature investigating a log in the remote Olympics. The witness describes intelligence in the being's eyes and the sensation of being observed. Years later, while hunting, he encounters multiple creatures communicating through wood knocks and territory marking with strategically broken trees.Adirondack Mountains, New York - 1976 & 1988 A biology graduate student conducting acid rain research experiences terrifying vocalizations and heavy bipedal footsteps circling her camp. Twelve years later, while camping with her husband, they both witness the same wood-knocking communication and glimpse a large, hair-covered figure—validating her earlier encounter and challenging her scientific understanding.Ozark Mountains, Arkansas - 1985 & 1997 An experienced hunter describes a creature methodically untying a rope supporting their game—showing dexterity and problem-solving unlike any known wildlife. Despite having a clear shot, he chooses not to fire after recognizing intelligence in the creature's eyes. His second encounter while hunting with his teenage son reveals territorial behavior through wood knocks and stone throwing.Great Smoky Mountains, North Carolina - 2002 & 2005 A pastor on a solitary retreat encounters unusual branch arrangements and "offerings." He describes the creatures' apparent response to prayer, adding a spiritual dimension to the encounter. Years later, with his young nephew, they witness coordinated movement around their camp and discover a precisely arranged pile of pinecones topped with a wild strawberry.Humboldt County, California - 2019 & 2022 A wildlife biologist in California's redwood forests provides our most technical account, describing coordinated group behavior, tool use, and possible communication attempts. Her scientific training allows detailed analysis of vocalizations with infrasonic components and footprints suggesting creatures weighing 600-700 pounds moving with bipedal locomotion unlike any known mammal. What makes these accounts compelling is the consistent behavioral patterns described by witnesses separated by thousands of miles and decades: the same wood knocking communication, branch breaking patterns, gift exchanges, and sense of being observed by something intelligent yet non-human.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteSupport Our SponsorsVisit Untold Radio AMBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys kick things off by sharing highlights from their recent trip to Memphis, Tennessee, along with a nostalgic dive into Kyle's father's old reloading equipment. They reminisce about growing up in rural Texas during the late '80s, where one of their favorite pastimes was reloading rifle ammunition—a much more affordable alternative to store-bought ammo. From there, things take a turn for the bizarre as they delve into a series of chilling and mysterious encounters. First, a first-time hunter has the fright of his life when a Bigfoot allegedly steals his phone. Then, an avid outdoorsman spots what appears to be a real-life hyena in the Adirondack Mountains. In another report, a witness sees not one, but three upright-walking dogmen with eerily human-like hands moving through the trees. It doesn't stop there—someone in West Texas mistakes a werewolf for a cow, a seasoned trail rider believes the Fae are playing tricks on her and her horses, and three individuals visiting a cemetery in San Jose are shocked by a creature resembling a Gargoyle. Could it have been feeding on their energy? All this and more on this strange and fascinating installment of Expanded Perspectives.

My buddy Josh Diaz is back on the show! And this week we are on location, camping deep in the Adirondack Park to record this episode! Josh had someone tell him of a possible Bigfoot encounter he had at Good Luck Lake, so we figured we would camp there too and see what we could find! We always have really cool campfire chats on our trips, and this one is no different. We talk about Bigfoot, the Mandela effect, the psychology and possible trauma of witnessing something that's not supposed to exist, the idea of basic belief, and we hear some weird things as we record. This was an awesome autumn camping trip into the Ferris Lake Wild Forest area of the Adirondack Mountains, where we met cool hikers, explored some spooky forested areas, and had beautiful views of the moon and stars over the lake at night.

pWotD Episode 2750: Elise Stefanik Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 323,020 views on Monday, 11 November 2024 our article of the day is Elise Stefanik.Elise Marie Stefanik ( stə-FAH-nick; born July 2, 1984) is an American politician serving as the U. S. representative for New York's 21st congressional district. As chair of the House Republican Conference since 2021, she is the fourth-ranking House Republican. Stefanik's district covers most of the North Country and the Adirondack Mountains, some of the outer suburbs of Utica and the Capital District in New York. In addition to being the first woman to occupy her House seat, Stefanik was 30 when first elected to the House in 2014, making her the youngest woman elected to Congress at the time.Initially elected as a moderate conservative, Stefanik has moved considerably towards the right, as she aligned herself with the then-President Donald Trump. She strongly opposed the first impeachment of Trump in 2019 amid the Trump–Ukraine scandal and backed Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election, objecting to Pennsylvania's electoral votes after Trump supporters were involved in the 2021 United States Capitol attack. As the U. S. House Select Committee on the January 6 Attack began to investigate, Stefanik claimed that Speaker Nancy Pelosi was responsible for the attack. Stefanik was elected chair of the House Republican Conference in May 2021 after incumbent Liz Cheney was removed due to her opposition to President Trump.Stefanik gained national attention in December 2023 for her intense questioning of university presidents during a widely televised U. S. congressional hearing on antisemitism. Stefanik's questioning contributed to the resignation of Liz Magill, the president of the University of Pennsylvania.In November 2024, CNN reported that Trump had offered Stefanik the position of United States ambassador to the United Nations.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:32 UTC on Tuesday, 12 November 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Elise Stefanik on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Brian.

What if common worship practices are elevating our anxiety rather than centering us in the peace of God? In this conversation, J. Michael Jordan joins the show to talk about the intersection of faith and mental health, particularly in relation to anxiety. He explores the historical context of the anxiety-relief repentance model in revivalist movements and its impact on worship practices. He emphasizes the need for a more holistic and sustainable approach to faith that goes beyond the cycle of anxiety, repentance, and relief. Jordan emphasizes the importance of a guiding story outside of our own experiences and the value of ritual in worship. He also discusses practical aspects of worship, such as lighting and technology, and how they can either draw us deeper into the worship experience or distract us from it. Rev. Dr. Michael Jordan (PhD, Drew University) is professor of theology at Houghton University. From 2002-2009, he was the pastor of Exton Community Baptist Church in Exton, PA. From 2013-2024, he served as Dean of the Chapel at Houghton before moving over to teach full-time this fall.  Over the summer, he is the staff chaplain at Camp-of-the-Woods, a Christian camp in the Adirondack Mountains. Mike's wife Jill is a mathematician who also teaches at Houghton; they live just off campus and together are raising their five children: Grace, Jack, Lucy, Gabriel, and Anne.

The Adirondack Mountains are home to a remarkable diversity of plant species. Situated in northern New York, these mountains are harsh enough that they foster a thriving alpine community. Despite their ability to handle some of the worst weather conditions, alpine plants can be quite sensitive to human traffic. With more and more people flocking to these mountains every year, concern was growing that the alpine ecosystem was going to be trampled right off the mountain tops. Luckily the Summit Steward Program was put into place to protect and hopefully restore some of what has been lost. We revisit a conversation with Kayla White to learn about this vital program aimed at protecting the alpine flora of the ADKs.

Referring back to his article, Fundamentals Of Retirement: Is the Summit “Good Enough?”, Jesse uses an experience hiking in the Adirondack Mountains as a metaphor to explore retirement preparedness. He recounts how being poorly equipped for a challenging hike can mirror the pitfalls of entering retirement without thorough planning - you might reach the summit, but the journey and destination may not be as enjoyable. Sharing the example of a couple, John and Eva, who are on the brink of retirement with substantial assets and a solid financial plan, Jesse raises critical questions about their investment strategy, withdrawal plans, and tax considerations, suggesting that while they are well-positioned, their retirement journey could be smoother with additional preparation.

In this episode, we delve into the fascinating history of neurasthenia, a diagnosis that gripped the urban middle and upper classes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Coined by American neurologist George Miller Beard, neurasthenia was seen as a byproduct of modern life, particularly affecting "brain workers" who were overwhelmed by the demands of urbanization and industrialization. We'll explore how this condition, characterized by chronic fatigue, anxiety, and nervous exhaustion, became a symbol of the anxieties of a rapidly changing society. We'll also discuss the popular "nature cure" prescribed by physicians of the time, which led to a significant cultural shift as city dwellers sought refuge in the countryside. The Adirondack Mountains in New York emerged as a prime destination, where the affluent built summer retreats to escape the chaos of urban life. These retreats became sanctuaries for those seeking to restore their health and balance through the therapeutic powers of nature. Finally, we'll examine the lasting impact of this period on American culture, including the role of the Adirondacks in the conservation movement and the enduring belief in the healing power of nature. Join us as we uncover how the fear of neurasthenia drove a generation to reconnect with the natural world, leaving a legacy that continues to influence our relationship with nature today.

Anxiety is rampant. It's everywhere. Does the way we worship enhance our collective anxiety? In this episode, Michael Jordan and I have a conversation exploring how Christian worship practices can both help and hinder people experiencing anxiety and mental health struggles. Michael discusses the history of evangelical worship traditions and how they have sometimes relied on heightening anxiety to bring people to repentance. However, Jesus modeled a different approach of meeting and accepting people in the midst of their struggles. We talk how liturgy, music, and use of technology in worship can help people relate their inner experiences to God's bigger salvation story. Practical steps like talking to mental health professionals and auditing current practices to be more inclusive of those with anxiety are offered as suggestions. How can churches intentionally support mental health through worship in a way that looks more like Jesus' compassionate example? Join us as we explore the intersection of worship and anxiety. Rev. Dr. Michael Jordan (PhD, Drew University) is an ordained Wesleyan pastor with twenty years of ministry experience in From 2002-2009, he was the pastor of Exton Community Baptist Church in Exton, PA, and has also served on the pastoral staff of his current church, Houghton Wesleyan. Over the summer, he is the staff chaplain at Camp-of-the-Woods, a Christian camp in the Adirondack Mountains. Mike's wife Jill is a mathematician who also teaches at Houghton; they live just off campus and together are raising their five children: Grace, Jack, Lucy, Gabriel, and Anne.

This week I dive into the life lessons I have learned thanks to the greatest teacher I've ever had, the Adirondack Mountains.The mountains will teach you a lot about yourself and real life if you let them…1. No one can get you to the summit. It's up to you to do the work.2. One foot in front of the other IS the formula. This will never change. Too tired to get back down? Too bad. You still have to walk back whether you want to or not.3. The mountains don't care about you. If you disrespect them you will be put in your place.4. Your bank account, status in life, skin color, age, sex, etc are all irrelevant. The mountains don't care. You will either get to the summit or you won't exactly the same as everyone else.5.

Kate Hanley's discovery of her parent's unique love language set her on a path she never anticipated—writing a book. Yet these beautiful “paper napkin sonnets,” and the story that surrounds them, were too precious and inspiring not to share, as they offer hope for anyone in the throes of caring for someone with dementia. The overwhelming peace she had when she witnessed her mother's love for her seven children overpower dementia encouraged her to write her story. It is her hope that others will believe that their compassion and resilience in caring for someone with dementia will not be forgotten. About Kate Hanley Kate is passionate about the work she does with her own consultancy, Kate Hanley Cominsky Associates, LLC. She is also an adjunct professor with Utica College and Teacher Education Programs. She and her husband live in Old Forge, NY with two dogs and two grown sons who come home as often as possible to enjoy the peace and beauty of the Adirondack Mountains. In this episode, you will be able to: ·     Realize the value of anecdotes related to dementia care, shedding light on love's strength and the hurdles encountered on the journey. ·     Expound on the essence of memory preservation techniques and harnessing the senses in dementia care. ·     Grasp the emotional aspects of caregiving and the importance of forging supportive alliances for mental well-being. ·     Recognize the early warning signs of dementia, distinguishing it from the natural aging process. ·     Acknowledge the efficacy of storytelling and clear-cut communication in enhancing the caregiving experience.

94. How Do Bear Canisters Work?

In episode 94 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we discuss the importance of proper food storage when hiking and camping in bear country. If you haven't had a chance to listen yet, I recommend going back and tuning into episode 85, where I interview a wildlife biologist specializing in bears from Glacier National Park. He shares some great tips on safely recreating around bears and avoiding an encounter altogether. So, to build on that topic and focus on one of the primary ways bears and humans collide, I was excited to interview Holly Jalenski, the co-founder of Grub Can, about how she and her husband created a bear-safe food canister that's comfortable to carry. You'll hear us chat about what inspired them to design a new bear canister, how they're tested, and if they actually work when a bear gets their hands on them. Holly Jaleski and Jim Corning are a husband and wife backpacking duo. They've both been backpacking all over the US for over 40 years. They created Grubcan out of a desire for a bear-resistant container that fits comfortably inside or outside backpacks and opens easily without tools. Grubcan's are handmade in Flagstaff (and we love visitors!). Holly is the CCO at Grubcan. She is trained in wildlife rehabilitation and is the Director of a rescue ranch. Her parents instilled in her a respect and love for nature from an early age. She has been on the BLM Resource Advisory Council for many years as an advocate for preserving nature for the good of all. She is also a novelist and writes environmental fiction. Jim is an Aeronautical Engineer and has been designing and manufacturing airplane parts out of carbon fiber for 26 years; now, he's used his expertise to transform the bear-resistant container market.

Brought to you by The Big Gear Show!  Trade Shows Are things back to “normal? Charlie I really think it is, we're going to have the same attendance as we normally would at our primary sort of national show. in the G O A Connect event. We will have two buyers and myself attending the principal's meetings and then, obviously, the buying sessions. And I think travel has settled down, prices notwithstanding. Everything's more expected. But we'll be there for a full slate of vendor meetings, business meetings, and line showings. It's going to look and feel a lot like it did pre-pandemic. And Pete, you're representing BrandKeep, obviously, give everybody a little background on BrandKeep. BrandKeep will be doing GOA, Discovery Marketplace, and 360 Adventure. That'll be kind of our real hello world. But BrandKeep is a platform designed to help retailers, specifically specialty outdoor retailers. manage all these digital assets and information in one central hub across all the brands in the shop. We're excited to bring this to the trade shows and introduce it to some of these retailers and hopefully get some folks on board and help them make their lives a little bit easier. And what do you think the greatest benefits to retailers and brands are for shows? Now that we had that pandemic situation where you didn't have to go to shows? What did you miss the most, and are they still necessary, trade shows? Charlie I think having a chance to sit down with some of the principles of our vendor partners and suppliers it's just really important. We have a relationship, I think, that extends beyond just pedaling their products in our shop. We want to represent their brand well, and they certainly want to understand who we are and the requirements we have as a retailer. And I would say that type of national show, again, Connect is really our primary event and is really important in that regard. We also have a number of charitable events throughout the year, so it's a chance for us to also thank folks that are sponsors of those events in a way that would be harder to do just with our local rep presence or at regional shows. Pete Before BrandKeep, I was actually a buyer and general manager for four outdoor stores. And I mean, just it's so important to get in there and make those personal connections. But just being able to like see and touch product when you're making those decisions, that's so important. And again, back to the human connection, you know, it's an energizing thing. That's why we do this. We enjoy each other's company. We have a lot of shared interests. And it's fun to go and, you know, make those reconnections, see friends, and get excited about what you're doing again. Are there any changes that were put in place in some of the recent Trade Shows you've been to as a result of the pandemic that you feel are working well or differently? Scheduling? Venues? Charlie We did actually thin out, even our Connect presence through the slightly hairier early days of the pandemic. Obviously, some events were just impacted and didn't go off, but we had concerns about safety and travel and those sorts of things, and some staff were more excited than others about climbing on an airplane and traveling. So I would say we maintained the connection to the events, but we didn't have the full presence that normally we do prior to and again now. I will say, and I agree with Pete, that getting your hands on products, seeing it, seeing a line, and putting things in context is super important. We were, I think, given the pretty narrow slice and pretty specific type of consumer that we serve out of the mountaineer, we actually were pleasantly surprised at also some of the remote levels of support that we saw. That does not ever take the place of a trade show, but I think we were able to navigate, and I think our vendors were able to help us navigate some of the limitations of the early days of the pandemic. In terms of knowing what was going to come into the shop, even if we hadn't had a chance to touch it. But now that we're back, you know, more or less in the clear, we always are going to lean towards having a chance to sit down with the rep, see the line, touch the product, and go from there. How can the show organizers and brands, and reps maximize value even further at these trade shows? Do you have any ideas on that? Charlie I think the balance that we try to find as a retailer, and I think this is up to the brands, either in terms of their investment, in terms of presence, or just the shows in terms of facilitating that cross-section of both regional reps and the higher-level principles. Obviously, you want everybody there, right? Right. But that's not always realistic. The one benefit that was also a little bit of an outgrowth in terms of frequency and number of regional shows we attended, was obviously proximity, but also being able to sit down with the same person that's normally coming by our shop or that we know already in our region. That's not always possible at the national shows; we still, I'd say, at Connect, in general, we have pretty good success with having the people we know being on the other side of the table or whatever it is. But I think it's important for event organizers and the vendors, and suppliers, to realize that when we show up and sit down to talk about products, we really do appreciate somebody knowing who we are and focusing in on the parts of a line that actually apply to us. I mean, we're not going to focus on urban dog walking gear if we're a mountaineering store, you know? So that sort of awareness of who we are makes the engagement that much more valuable. You can't pull that off a hundred percent, but get as close to that as possible without having to sit down and explain to somebody who you are, what your store is, and what you like from scratch when you go to these national shows. Pete Interesting thing back in the day, I think it tended to lend itself to the parties and socialization. Lots of happy hours and, I think, too,, with the pandemic and travel being cut back, and that's stayed kind of cut back. I think we're going to continue to see attendance levels rise at these things because it is an opportunity for those brands to really come in and see a lot of people and get a lot of really meaningful work done in a short amount of time. No matter how stressful that can be. But yeah, I think a lot more work is getting done, and I think the show organizers are doing a great job of facilitating the scheduling and all that. and another change that I have seen, and one of the new things that GOA is doing, is the Discovery Marketplace. Which is really cool or such a working show because now it's giving a lot of these folks that might not be attending these national shows an opportunity to see new brands and open a whole new avenue and that side of the trade show as well. Charlie I'll second what Pete said there. I definitely think that the GOA Connect event is doing a nice job of bringing in new brands, exposing the retail members to some different options that they might not normally see, but also walking that line of doing it without the sort of full-blown zoo, you know, massive conventions atmosphere. I think that mix of really targeted business meetings, line showings, and then also some discovery, like just well-curated discoveries is a really nice setup Do you guys have any thoughts on how a rep or a brand can help you maximize your time in the appointment part of it?. What's the perfect appointment . . . the setup, the execution, the follow-up? Charlie I'll jump back in, and I sort of touched on this earlier, I think, obviously, if that's a rep you've had some contact with, which hopefully you have, and you know, we've been, as a business, The Mountaineer has been around for almost 50 years, so we have, we have relationships with reps that go back 5, 10, 20 years in some cases. The ideal sit down is really obviously just a chance to catch up and be social, you know, get, understand what the rep's been up to. What's going on in life? But from there, I think again, knowing a rep, knowing who we are, the type of customer that we serve, and being able to really cut into that part of the line that applies. That's the ideal appointment. And then we can spend more time really focusing on the details of those products. I'd rather be narrow and deep than wide and shallow in terms of those types of meetings. What's the most daunting aspect of these shows? Is it just managing all the assets, workbooks, and orders, or time management, the travel? Charlie I'll sort of tie in the brand key part of that. Having digital assets, having digital workbooks in advance, and then being able to take what we've done in terms of annotations or selections from those workbooks and the POs, basically having all those things in one place, is an evolving improvement that we're starting to see through BrandKeep as a utility. Definitely, the days of hauling back reams and reams of paper in these workbooks, we've sort of moved past that. We also have multiple buyers at the Mountaineer that are interacting with the same brand, and to be able to not have that information stashed away in a manila folder, in a cabinet under somebody's desk, and have it all in one centralized common format is key. And so I'd say that's one of the big refinements that we've been working on. You know, the travels, the travel scheduling, the meetings, I think again, in the case of Connect, they do a pretty good job of that with their utility. But mostly, it's that sort of post-show. . . okay, what did we just do? So actually BrandKeep is really actually a fairly important part of where we are with that right now Pete I was going to say as a buyer . . . even now that we are in the digital landscape, I would show up with a laptop and an empty bag and come back with, good grief, I mean, a full laptop bag, usually like one of those totes that you inherit when you get there full of random printouts and workbooks and swag. My desk was generally kind of a nightmare for about two weeks after that as I sorted through it. So I will say one of the things that the brands and reps could do to that did make my life easier. The ones that were doing it well, were the ones that just had those digital assets accessible. They had links that worked, they were updated. The B2Bs have come a long way. But even if it's just a simple order form, just have that order form simply have it work. Here's your thumb drive. Everything's available, and then beyond that, just communication. How's business? I know during the pandemic, everybody seemed to be killing it. I'm sure it's backed off from what it was during the pandemic, but is, is it still booming, still good? Charlie I would say we've been looking back on 22, and 2023 has its own story to tell that's been evolving. I was pleasantly surprised that we were able to stay as close to the pace of 2021. Obviously, the fuse was lit basically midway through the summer of 2020. Outdoor was sort of everything for people that had been pent up right, and needed fresh air. And we as a business, not only in that industry but also sort of in ‘sitchu' here, literally at the doorstep to the Adirondack Mountains, we benefited from that pretty mightily and that trend, and also just the remote work trend, you know, played heavy through all of 2021. As I talked with my staff, there was that question, what is the back end of this hump look like? Is it gonna steady out and plateau somewhere near here, or are we going to go all the way back down to the valley floor on that? And I would say in general, it's been pretty steady. Pete Again, with the shop I was in, we were seeing pretty much the exact thing that Charlie was seeing. We were staying strong, and I think, too, it forced us to, and I think a lot of businesses out there. It really forced them to learn that sometimes you can do more with less. You find creative ways to find new products, to fill in for those that you couldn't get, new creative ways to merchandise, to sell your product, be it online or whatever. Um, So I think those, those lessons carried forward too. And as we look forward to 2023, hopefully, those are hardened in the retailers. This will drop in June of 2023. So we're halfway through. What's beyond summer look like? Charlie Summer's big here. We do have a healthy winter business, and the shoulder seasons have continued to shrink. Meaning we've got people here pretty much year-round. But in summer, my real focus is on summer. And candidly, as well as I think we've been doing top line, inventory control has continued to have some challenges, both on the can't get ahold of it, and, on the now have too much of it kind of side of things. So, summer 23 is, obviously, we've got preseasons in for fall and increasingly spring of 24. But that's going to have a real bearing on whether we hold the line on those preseasons if we need to start tweaking or tuning those. So definitely, I like the longer-term perspective. I like the question, Rick, but so much, really, how that's going to feel and look is going to start to shape up in the next 10 to 12 weeks. And, uh, yeah, continue to, to keep, keep moving forward, keep doing those things How is fulfillment coming? Are brands fulfilling orders, or are there hits and misses? How's that going? Pete I'm a little bit removed. It's been a good six months since I've been wearing the buying hat. I'm hearing from brands and from some stores that fulfillment is getting a little bit better, but it's still a challenge. And you kind of have to order accordingly. So for us, a lot of times, it was a lot of over-ordering or ordering a replacement product in addition to that gold standard that we were just hoping was going to come at the right time. Then beyond that, really staying on top of it because, you know, if it all comes at once and you're not ready? Like Charlie was saying, you either can't get it, or you got too much of it. So really staying on top of those POs, those cancellation dates. Checking your inventory because, again, you might have had to replace one of your best products with something new, and how is it doing? Do I need more of that? It was a constant daily challenge. I would say that the folks that did the best job, like brands and reps, were the ones that were communicating Letting you know this is going to be a partial ship or if you're getting a ship a month late, giving you a heads up on that. And you, and as a rep and a sales guy, you really can't over-communicate on that. Charlie it's funny, I've sort of referred to this a few times, but early in the pandemic, it was a fairly predictable set of ripples coming out from that stone hitting the water. And we were ahead of the backcountry skiing thing and stocked up and ready for that. With each passing year, those ripples have just sort of turned into chop. It's just been a grab bag of different circumstances for different vendors for different seasons. So we definitely, sort of to what Pete was saying in terms of operationally, have tightened the process around really tracking what those ship dates are. Let's talk about staffing a little bit. Seems like there are a lot of issues around staffing, whether it's inflation and wages or lack of people. How are you guys handling, handling that? Charlie We were very fortunate. We've enjoyed long-tenured staff, and obviously, for those folks, originally, it was heightened gas prices last summer and then just increasing inflation over the past 12 plus months and just cost of living increases. So we try to do everything we can. When I do an end-of-year, and I sit down, I say, Hey, look, we can't change this entire game plan, but I can do the best I can to keep you in check with what I know your overhead is, and so I think our staff appreciates that we do what we can from the wages standpoint. There are some other things you can also do just to ensure quality and work-life balance. We have my full-time staff. The entire set of department heads runs a four-day on, three-day off. So we won't call it a weekend because it could be a Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday, but that kind of perk, if you will, and just us doing our best to have a solid package and overall compensation plan. That's the best we can do. And hopefully, just maintain a work environment that's fun to be in. Let's talk about some fun stuff. Charlie, what are you getting out doing these days for your outdoor activities? Oh, man. Well, I am retraining my body from a winter of backcountry skiing into the pounding rhythm of trail running. And that takes me, I've actually gotten a little smarter over the years as to how aggressively I try to make that transition. I'm also getting a little older, so that's new. April is a good month. I had some fun. I did a backcountry trip up into the Chick Chocks on the upper Gas Bay Peninsula and Quebec, which was pretty fantastic with some good, good ski buddies. And that was all backcountry skiing. And then I doubled down and did some tarpon fishing down in Florida a couple of weeks later. So, I've had my fun, and now it's time to get to work. Pete Oh man, I had a really busy summer last year with moving and, and what have you. So I'm looking forward to exploring my own backyard. I live here in western North Carolina, so I got a backpacking trip in Panthertown this weekend planned, and lots of boat trips. I'm trout fishing and just starting to be outside. Get the garden going. Do you have a favorite piece of outdoor gear or equipment that you keep with you or that you like to use? Something that just rises to the top all the time, whether it's a favorite pair of running shoes, a little gadget for when you're not hiking? Pete I really love my gravity filter. I do a ton of backpacking, and I've spent too many hours knelt over my knees aching and falling in cold creeks pumping water. So I have a big 10-liter gravity filter that I can just dump in and hang. That's probably my most used. Charlie Be Free bladder filter. As a trail runner, and somebody sort of looking to carry as little on me as possible, that's just a scoop in the brook screw on the cap and you're sucking five nines filtered water through the, through the top unit. You're not getting 10 liters out of that, but you can get up to a liter at a time. Do you guys have any business books you recommend for everybody? Maybe one business book that's been particularly valuable to you? Charlie Let My People Go Surfing Marketplace on NPR stations. It's an American public media broadcast.
