The mission of Seek Outside is founded in their passion for the outdoors, wild places and the experiences they provide. The company exists to improve the all season backcountry experience, and to help protect and conserve the wild places we all love. In mid-October, Jesse Deubel had the opportunity to put some Seek Outside gear to the test during a muzzleloader elk hunt in the Gila. After the hunt he sat down with Kevin Timm, the founder and owner of Seek Outside to discuss the origins of the company, the products and the conservation ethic the company is so well known for. As you'll hear, Kevin and the team at Seek Outside have a passion for big adventures in wild places. That is is why Seek Outside proudly supports groups that teach, mentor and protect these special places. They have earned multiple achievements including winning the Larry Fisher Award for their commitment to conservation. Through the years, they have supported many grassroots conservation causes such as A Year in The Wilderness. Seek Outside not only provides all season backcountry performance gear, but also protects the interests of the sportsman and the recreational adventurer. This conversation will educate you about the process of designing, building and testing some of the best backcountry gear on the market. Enjoy the listen! For more info:Seek OutsideSeek Outside FBSeek Outside YoutubeNMWF

I reflect on my experiences living in the area, including a nostalgic mention of the small town of Parachute and my introduction to a plant-based diet while working in Rifle.

As the largest organ of our body, our skin doesn't just reflect our inner health—it absorbs everything we expose it to, both the good and the bad. I had a fascinating conversation with Emily Rose, better known as Mama Wilder on social media, where we dug deep into the world of skincare and dangers of toxic chemicals.  Our skin is like a sponge, soaking up whatever we apply to it. We all know the risks of harmful chemicals like PFAS and toxins, which can easily enter our systems through the skin.  Parabens, for instance, are often used as preservatives but can mimic hormones and even contribute to early puberty in children. And those seemingly harmless fragrances? They're usually a mix of chemicals that can disrupt your endocrine system. Emily opened up about her struggles with skin issues, from cystic acne to trying every product under the sun, both natural and pharmaceutical. The biggest improvements came when she started focusing on reducing stress, nourishing her body with minerals, and steering clear of endocrine disruptors. Red light therapy involves low-level wavelengths of red light that can treat various skin issues, from reducing redness to soothing irritation. While it might be a bit of an investment, the results can be significant, with many users reporting a noticeable improvement in skin tone and texture. Beyond tech solutions like red light therapy, natural antioxidants like hydroxytyrosol are making waves in skincare. Derived from olives, hydroxytyrosol is a potent antioxidant with anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and even anti-cancer properties. Skincare is about consistency. Regular exfoliation, lymphatic drainage, and moisturizing are essential for maintaining healthy, glowing skin. Climate, diet, and stress all play roles in how your skin responds to different products. The key is to find what works for you and stick with it. If you're feeling overwhelmed by all the options, start with one new product. Focus on what your skin really needs—whether it's hydration, acne treatment, or redness reduction. By simplifying your routine and cutting out unnecessary chemicals, your skin has a better chance to heal and thrive. Emily "Mama Wilder" is a single mom of two in Western Colorado, a birth educator, health coach and advocate for women's autonomy in the healthcare industry. Find Emily:  instagram.com/mama_wilder
