Ep. 20: Outdoorsman and Adventurer Tanner Whiteford, PACT Outdoors Today, we have the first guest of the show, and most definitely not the last. We had a great conversation, from growing up in central North Carolina, he thought he was going to be an army man just like his dad, until his dad brought him to a showing of an iconic ski film from Warren Miller, which in turn put him on a new path toward skiing and adventure and back to family roots in Colorado. From canyoneering and ski mountaineering to hunting the ranges of Gunnison to an amazing outdoor company in PACT Outdoors, this is but a glimpse, of Tanner Whiteford.
