GET  OUTSIDE

AND

ENJOY THE WOODS

Jonathan is an outdoorsman and wilderness skills instructor, that loves to share a campfire with anyone who would welcome him. He spent his childhood camping, canoeing, kayaking, fishing and hunting with his grandpas and knew early on nature was a place he belonged. With over a decade now of experience in the outdoor community, he has trained all over the country with schools and experts in the field. He has made it a point to learn and develop his skills in multiple environments and gain knowledge from anyone he can. His desire to not limit his outdoor education to just one method, school, or way of thinking has given him a Multitool approach to wilderness living skills.

In 2018 he moved to Southeast Alaska to work as canoe guide and naturalist at the Davidson Glacier. The job required living off grid eighty percent of the time in a homestead environment. The only access to his cabin was by boat to resupply before heading back out. He clocked well over 100 days immersed in the rugged landscape and learned invaluable lessons for wilderness living. This soul searching journey gave him the confidence needed to pursue this full time and no longer as just a hobby.

He is a brand ambassador for several companies and loves using and testing gear.  He creates content as The Bearded Burton on all social media platforms and loves capturing moments using photography and videography as his canvas.

His motto “Get Outside and Enjoy The Woods,” is one he hopes sparks the fire in others to enjoy everything nature can do for us.
