In this multi-part episode, we talk with Dr. Jon Turk about his amazing adventures, life and death and the power of aboriginal peoples.

Jon is a scientist, author, and National Geographic award-winning explorer whose worldview was altered by extended visits with Moolynaut, a Siberian shaman.

He earned a Ph.D. in organic chemistry and was nominated by National Geographic as one of the Top Ten Adventurers of the Year in 2012.  Jon co-authored the first college-level environmental science textbook in North America, followed by 35 additional texts, and five books about his adventures.

Jon has kayaked around Cape Horn, across the North Pacific from Japan to Alaska, and circumnavigated Ellesmere Island.  He is also credited with numerous first ski descents and first rock climbing ascents around the globe.
