Karly Barker joins Hana at Wild Sheep Foundation’s Sheep Show for a great conversation about life on the water, forging your own path, and earning respect in one of the toughest working environments out there.

Raised in the outdoors and shaped by a life connected to the coast, Karly now makes her living as a guide with Queen Charlotte Fishing Lodge. In this episode, she shares why a career in the trades was never the right fit, how she found her place on the ocean, and what it took to establish herself as a female guide in a profession still largely dominated by men.

Karly dives into the realities of guiding on the open waters of Haida Gwaii, where big water, changing conditions, and high expectations demand grit, confidence, and skill. She and Hana talk about what it takes to succeed in a male-dominated industry, what guests can expect from a QCL experience, and why conservation remains such an important part of the conversation.

Queen Charlotte Fishing Lodge is a valued partner of the Wild Sheep Society of British Columbia. To learn more about their world-class fishing experiences, visit fishqcl.com.

In this episode of Talk is Sheep, Kyle Stelter sits down with Kyle Kamp of Valley to Peak Nutrition for a practical and motivating conversation about building a nutrition plan for mountain hunting season.

With sheep season only months away, this episode focuses on one of the most overlooked parts of preparation: having a plan. Together, they break down how hunters can identify their goals, whether that is fat loss, improved performance, or both, and then start building a nutrition strategy that actually supports training and recovery.

Kyle Kamp explains how to approach calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fats in a way that is realistic, sustainable, and effective. The conversation also explores common mistakes hunters make, the importance of consistency, why the scale is not the only measure of progress, and how discipline and habits ultimately shape success in the mountains.

This is a great episode for anyone getting serious about their hunt prep and looking to better understand how nutrition and training work together. Whether you are trying to get leaner, stronger, or simply more capable before opening day, this episode will help you start with the right mindset and the right strategy.

In this episode of Talk is Sheep, Kyle Stelter sits down with legendary outfitter Harold Grinde of Gana River Outfitters for a conversation about legacy, wild sheep, and a life spent in some of the wildest country left in North America.

Harold shares his remarkable journey from guiding in the Yukon and British Columbia to becoming one of the most respected names in the Northwest Territories. He reflects on decades in the Mackenzie Mountains, the history and evolution of Gana River Outfitters, and what makes the NWT such a special place for mountain hunters. From remote horseback hunts and backpack sheep camps to camp improvements, wildlife management, and the importance of preserving traditional hunting experiences, Harold offers a rare and authentic look into a storied outfitting life.

The conversation also dives into conservation, mentorship, hunter education, and Harold’s deep commitment to giving back through organizations like the Wild Sheep Foundation. As he prepares to pass the reins to the next generation, Harold shares what matters most: family, stewardship, and leaving things better than he found them.

If you want to check out an incredible hunt opportunity with Gana River, the Wild Sheep Society of BC is offering a raffle for 2026. Tickets are now on sale at: www.rafflebox.ca/raffle/wss-bc-gana-dall

This is a conversation about wild country, hard-earned wisdom, and one man’s lasting impact on hunting and conservation in the North.
