EP. 087 - ART. HUNT. LIFE w/ Brogan Didier

Episode 87 – Brogan Didier | Artist, Outfitter & Mountain Hunter

This week we're joined by Brogan Didier from Chetwynd, BC—hunter, wildlife artist, owner of Burnt River Outfitters, and creator of the Pine Princess elk call.

We dive into Brogan's upbringing in an outfitting family, growing up in the mountains of Northern BC, and how a lifelong obsession with wildlife turned into creating some of the most recognizable hunting artwork in Canada.

The conversation covers Stone sheep, mountain goat adventures with Dalton from Northern Son Media, elk hunting, moose calling, guiding clients from around the world, hilarious outfitting stories, and why hunting has changed so much over the last couple of decades.

We also get into the growing grizzly bear population in Northern BC, the challenges it's creating for hunters and outfitters, and the upcoming documentary project Brogan and Dalton have been working on.

If you're passionate about mountain hunting, wildlife art, elk calling, or just enjoy swapping stories with good people, this one's for you.
