From Woods Boss to Brewery Boss and Tales of Avalanches, Travel, and Nature Along the Way

Published: May 16, 2020, 8:04 p.m.

In this feature length interview, we talk with Jordan and Michelle about nature, travel, owning a brewery, surviving an earthquake and an avalanche, and having a baby during a pandemic.

Originally meeting Jordan at his brewery that he co-owns with Chad Moore, we knew we needed to talk extensively with him about his very sciencey, very nerdy, yet still very cool and active lifestyle. With his equally kick-ass wife Michelle, and his Wood Boss, Jr, Miss Penelope (their newborn), we learned about forestry, river science, conservation, hydrology, beer (of course), and how to travel while respecting the culture of the region.

Coming at you live from Jordan\u2019s closet \u2013 he thought it would prove to be a quiet space for a Zoom call, but thankfully that didn\u2019t happen. It\u2019s the real life-stories that we like to capture, and that is exactly what we did\u2026live from Michelle and Jordan\u2019s closest.
