Will to Live

A FILM BY Foss Media

PRESENTED BY Danner and Filson

In 2007, Gary Edinger’s life was moments from ending.

For years, he logged by himself in the forests of Wisconsin. He was raised to be independent, resourceful, strong. One miscalculation when felling a tree severed his leg below the knee and his life changed in an instant. Miles from help and dangerously losing blood, Gary fought the desire to ease the pain and lie down in the snow, which would have certainly been a death sentence.

Gary’s incredible story is one of determination, for not only was he fighting for his will to live, but also to continue the lifestyle of an outdoorsman that he has pursued since he was a child.

For more reading on this tremendous individual, you can read Edge of Edinger, our story from Modern Huntsman Volume Three: Wildlife Management.

Gary’s book, Will to Live: Saga of Survival, is available at garyedinger.com

Long Form Story, Moultrie, Volume Twelve
A man of many good deeds, he’ll be the last to boast about them. This humility is somewhat at odds with the Dan Moultrie in front of a camera marketing a new deer feeder, the Dan Moultrie sitting proudly beside a lifetime buck, or the Dan Moultrie who has appeared on television shows with legendary football coaches or outdoor celebrities.
