As an engineer and entrepreneur, he’s taken a lot of chances, but he really learned about risk mitigation over a lifetime of pushing the limits outdoors. He grew up on a farm in Minnesota, where he learned to appreciate nature and her ways, and spent much of his life fishing and hunting throughout North America. These are the stories he’s accumulated over decades, and the lessons they’ve taught him. Gary says, “If you’re not living on the edge, you’re takin’ up too much room.”
