Kurt Refsnider had the dream gig -- Geology professor at Prescott College, in Prescott, Arizona, near tons of great riding. But as bikepacking took more and more of his headspace, he realized his real dream gig was founding Bikepacking Roots, an organization dedicated to getting folks from all walks of life out there and having fun. We talked with Refsnider about the rise of bikepacking, how to get into it, and some of the most insane riding he's done.

Denise Joi is one of four pilots for Colorado Parks and Wildlife, where she flies a small Cessna between soaring Rocky Mountain peaks, conducting wildlife surveys and -- more dangerous and dramatic -- fish drops, stocking pristine alpine lakes with trout and grayling. We spoke with her about her incredible job, but also her amazing short film "Fight or Flight" that shows the real reason she pursued flying and how that pursuit helped heal trauma.
