John & Jenn Rivet have been Livin the Dream together for over 35 years. Together they’ve been outfitting for over 30 years with a combined experience of 60+ years. They have both been avid outdoorsmen since a very young age whether they were fishing, hunting, trapping, camping, farming, mining, hiking in the wild, off-roading, quadding, or whatever took them outdoors! John has been guiding Big Game animals and more for over 37 years. They are also manufacturers of hunting scents & calls, as well as fishing tackle manufacturers and developers.
Join us for a conversation about bear hunting, connections made through bear camp and the upcoming Bush Dragon 3 film.
