In this episode: (2:20) Dave starts the podcast by sharing a story from a mountaineering Alaska course in the summer of 2001. He begins by telling us how the course's main focus was to travel over the McLaren glacier, and things got more accessible when they found the river was frozen. But later on, after some lousy weather hit them, they ran out of food when their plane, which was carrying their resupply, couldn't land. Then, it took a drastic turn when things started going sideways. (26:50) Later on, Anderson tells us about his trip to China. He talks about how he found out about some amazing peaks to climb while reading an American Alpine Journal and took a leap of faith into trying them out, which was located in Sichuan, China. He tells how the drivers who took him and his wife and other clients nudge them for more money in the middle of nowhere. After dealing with that, he was greeted by hundreds of monks, that took them in and greeted them warmly. The whole experience still warms his heart, even now. (34:40) Dave shares his trip to India, where he ran into many travellers discovering places where not many have gone to. It turns out the track to reach those places usually closes in winters, so the locals wait till the river freeze to cross it, which takes them several days to reach their destination. The story gets more interesting when Dave reaches Zenskar in northern India.

MATT DEINES Hey everyone, welcome to the Hot Drinks podcast I am your host Shawn Stratton. Each week I sit down with an outdoor educator to hear some of their best stories leading students on wilderness expeditions around the world. This week's guest, Matt Deines grew up in western Nebraska and completed his Bachelor's degree in Natural Science from the University of Wyoming. He worked at NOLS for 12 years (1999-2011), leading backpacking and mountaineering trips in Alaska, backpacking courses in Wyoming, canyon courses in Utah, and lightweight backpacking trips in the southwest and Wyoming. Matt is currently living in Orange County, California, with his wife Jamie, also a NOLS Instructor and their adorable twin daughters. He now works for the University of California, Irvine as a physical & environmental sustainability planner. Matt and I completed our NOLS IC together out of the NOLS Southwest Branch in Tucson AZ. back in 1999 and it was great to catch up with him.

Anything you can offer is greatly appreciated! In this episode: (03:15) Matt starts the interview by telling us about his father, who happens to be the boy scout leader and how he introduced the little Matt to outdoor adventure, wilderness, and backpacking trips. Matt further talks about the scout camp he attended in New Mexico called Philmont, where he overheard one of the instructors talking about NOLS being the most challenging thing he had ever done in life. At the tender age of 16, Matt couldn't hold himself back and perked up to face the challenges. Soon after completing his undergrad degree, he joined NOLS semester and later on got inspired to work for them by his amazing mentors. (07:11) Matt shares with us one of the first love stories of the podcast, named "Pranking leads to marriage.” He reminisced about when he met the girl of his dreams in the Alaska range in Clearwater mountain, which later became his wife. Matt told us how the group was divided in two for the night, which turns into a mischievous act when Matt's group pranked his wife Jamie's group by hiding their pots which then turns into a series of pranks – it's hilarious. (16:04) Going forward, Matt tells us about how his daughters took in the genes of both the parents and loves to go on wild adventure trips. He shares their camping stories and scrambling on long summer days and how they enjoy exploring canyons and going skiing. Matt talks about how his girls would be interested in joining NOLS someday – and how excited he is for it since the organization teaches so many different valuable lessons. (18:21) Deines yet again shares one of the funny stories back from his days in NOLS about his first day in the winds. He tells us how one of his co-instructor Joshua, blows his own trumpet by describing how he knows the place really well and would lead the entire group to the first X. All the bragging went in vain when after hour-long hiking, he dropped his bags, telling others they have lost their way and would need a map this time. (22:35) I asked Matt about his best and worst days in NOLS. He shares pretty exciting stories that involved navigating his group through a treacherous glacier that gave him a John Muir moment, to the moment when he maced himself with a bear spray that turned into one of the worst pains he had ever experienced. (31:47) We played our very own rapid-fire question with Matt, which he answered as gracefully as only he can, starting from his favourite gears and location to lead trips to his intriguing answer to his definition of the word 'adventure.'

Growing up, I always enjoyed camping and heading into the wilderness. There's something about it which makes people grow and develop their skills. Wilderness leadership is essentially leadership skills which are developed during trying times in the wild. When you are pitted against the elements, there's no doubt that your leadership skills will be put to the test. My guest in this episode, Shawn Stratton, was once an instructor for the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) where he took young adults through the backcountry across the world. With this experience, he wrote his book based on the leadership lessons which he took from some of the most difficult situations which he found himself in during his time. Wilderness Leadership Topics During our interview we discuss the following topics: His background and storyHow he got into the NOLS organization.Lessons from the $30,000 blisterLessons from Facing Team Destruction in BajaLessons from Climbing the Largest and Coldest Mountain in the WorldHow he got into the Leadership consulting business.
