    Thrive 53 - Is the West Quietly Being Privatized?

    We talk about public land like it's permanent. Like it will always be there. Like nothing can really change it.  But what if the real shift isn't happening through legislation? What if it's happening quietly… through purchase? What happens when the winter range, the migration corridor, the valley floor, and the only access road all sit behind one locked gate?  The West isn't disappearing. But it might be consolidating.  And if that's true, DIY Western hunting could look very different 10- 20 years from now.  _____________________ Additional Resources Use code TREELINE for a Peax discount and to support the Vodcast.

    Thrive 51 - No Middle Ground | Has Western Hunting Peaked?

    In this special edition of The Thrive Vodcast, No Middle Ground Mark and Chiam cut through the noise of modern Western hunting with zero fluff and zero filter. Has Western hunting peaked, or has the rising costs and demand finally broken the system? Do you run a 0° or 15° sleeping bag, and what are the real-world tradeoffs, and does it actually matter in the backcountry? UV pens vs water filters, what does the science really say, and do we even trust "the science" anymore? Solo hunting vs group hunting! Do you prefer soul-searching solitude or shared adventures? Llamas vs pack goats: the capability, cost, and the reality!  No scripted takes. Just opinions, hard lines, and real conversations. Let's get to it. __________________________________________________ Additional Thrive Resources Use My Code TREELINE For Peax Discount.  Treeline Academy Courses – (Use code THRIVE to save 20% on any Treeline course) https://www.treelineacademy.net  Treeline Podcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/podcast-main--b42b4 Peax Elk & Bear Tour https://www.treelineacademy.net/peax-tour Elk 101 Destination Elk Eight https://youtu.be/f8U7GW2L3go?si=N7f93gpuq2VtGt7h Lark Bottle https://amzn.to/4aCubGK= Ringconn https://amzn.to/46OjKib Grakksaw (Use Code Treeline For Discount) https://www.grakksaw.com/

    Thrive 50 - The Death Of Adventure: The Modern Man Disconnect

    Today's Thrive episode is a little different. No hunt tactics. No gear talk. No strategy.  We will get back to that, but today I want to explore a topic that's been on my mind.  It's about us! More specifically, the disconnect of the modern man. You don't need a PhD to see it, men are drifting and some are completely off course. Society is conditioning our boys to be soft, disconnected, and addicted to comfort. They're not being built to lead, to endure, or even to rise to the challenges of life.  Instead, we've got men in their prime, avoiding discomfort, addicted to dopamine, and wandering further from who they were meant to be. The modern man has become disconnected from adventure, and ultimately, from who he was designed to be. __________________________________________________ Additional Thrive Resources Use My Code TREELINE For Peax Discount.  Treeline Academy Courses – (Use code THRIVE to save 20% on any Treeline course) https://www.treelineacademy.net Treeline Podcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/podcast-main--b42b4 Peax Elk & Bear Tour https://www.treelineacademy.net/peax-tour Elk 101 Destination Elk Eight https://youtu.be/f8U7GW2L3go?si=N7f93gpuq2VtGt7h

    Thrive 49 - Spring Bear Success Starts Now: 2026 Will Expose The Unprepared

    Spring bear season doesn't start when the tag hits your pocket, it should start right now!  This year, the snow isn't normal; the prime bear elevation zones they may not line up like they have historically.  Spring bear hunting is snowline game. An elevation game and a timing game. The bear hunters who are guessing are about to get exposed. 2026? It's going to punish the unprepared.   In this Thrive episode, I'm breaking down what you need to be doing right now to get ahead of the season. __________________________________________________ Additional Thrive Resources Use My Code TREELINE For a Peax Discount.  Treeline Academy Courses – (Code THRIVE to save 20% on any Treeline course) https://www.treelineacademy.net Treeline Podcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/podcast-main--b42b4 Treeline Thrive Vodcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/thrive Peax Elk & Bear Tour Events https://www.treelineacademy.net/peax-tour Gritty Movie Night Tickets & Trailer https://staygritty.com/pages/movie_night Backpacking Grizzly Bear Hunt – Gritty Films https://youtu.be/CzV_ihfnElk?si=n-4hcgpfQ9NxFCEE

    Thrive 48 - The Truth About Elk Tags: Is The System Rigged

    Remember when elk hunting out West meant hitting the mountains, not crunching numbers, gaming odds, or dodging fine print and deception? Is the elk tag game rigged, and are the rules changing while you're still in line? What's happening in the Western elk tag system isn't just frustrating, it's broken. The states know it. The math proves it. Application season is here, our annual collision of hope and reality. It's when we obsess over draw odds, dissect point strategies, and hustle every angle to and elk tag for next season. Today, elk hunting has become a two-tiered game: those with points… and those without. The hard truth? Both camps are in trouble. In this week's Thrive episode, we're pulling back the curtain, digging into the trends, the tag systems, and the truth about what it really takes to hunt elk in Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, and Colorado. It's not just about tag costs, its exposing a system that's quietly become a lottery that you pay to lose.  Do these systems still work… or are we all stuck in an expensive spin cycle?   Additional Thrive Resources Use My Code TREELINE for a discount on your Peax Equipment gear!  Treeline Academy Courses – (Use code THRIVE to save 20% on any Treeline course) https://www.treelineacademy.net Treeline Podcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/podcast-main--b42b4 Treeline Thrive Vodcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/thrive Points, Odds & Reality: Our 2026 Hunt Application Strategy – GOHUNT Big Hunt Guys Podcast – Episode 207 https://youtu.be/Q7l6mnD-ol8?si=AsGEIL3OWZnSQqHQ On X Hunt – Elk Draw Trends: Study Of Western US Data 2018-2022 https://www.onxmaps.com/hunt/blog/elk-draw-trends?

    Thrive 46 - The Numbers Don't Lie: Montana Mule Deer Collapse

    In the last Thrive episode, I laid out some hard truths. Montana's deer herds are in trouble. The response to that episode was immediate, emotional, and a bit overwhelming.  Hundreds of comments, strong opinions, and a lot of understandable frustration from people who care deeply about Montana's deer herd. But here's the thing, pointing out the problems was only step one. Today's episode isn't about outrage; it's about your comments, ideas, and potential solutions. I'm going to address the biggest questions you asked, and then I'm going to lay out several ideas for your consideration. Doing nothing is no longer an option; we've been wearing that option out. _____________________ Additional Thrive Resources Use My Code TREELINE For A Discount and to show support for the Vodcast.  Treeline Academy Courses – (Use code THRIVE to save 20% on any Treeline course) https://www.treelineacademy.net Treeline Podcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/podcast-main--b42b4 Treeline Thrive Vodcast Archive https://www.treelineacademy.net/thrive Understanding Mule Deer & Antler Point Restrictions: The Mule Deer Working Group https://wildlife.utah.gov/pdf/mule_deer/mdwg-6_point_restrictions.pdf
