I offer these hikes as a way to share my passion for studying and filming mountain lions and spending time in truly wild country. You’ll learn some valuable backcountry navigation and safety skills as well.

The last twenty years have been spent studying and filming mountain lions in some of the wildest country of Colorado and Montana. I de veloped a system, using four natural factors, which allows me to pinpoint m ountain lion activity throughout the United States, Canada and Chile. I enj oy sharing this knowledge and supporting others to study this magnificent a pex predator through a personalized Mountain Li on Workshop which includes mapping mountain lion activity in the client ’s chosen area, up to 100 square miles.
