Wild Pivots with Cliff Gray

Today we talk with Cliff Gray, a former finance whiz turned wilderness outfitter, guide, and content creator. Cliff's a great guy and shares his wild pivot from trading desks in Chicago and NYC to running hunts across Colorado, Idaho, Montana, and beyond.
With a massive following on Instagram and YouTube, he drops real talk on guiding realities, why public land management gets a D-minus grade, and how corruption skews the system for big players like Vail Resorts.
 
We also cover: 
- Why guiding isn’t brain surgery, but livestock smarts are key 
- The dark side of growth in outfitting: jaded attitudes and physical burnout 
- How federal land rules favor ski empires over everyday hunters 
- Cliff’s take on why hunters need reps, not just opinions
