Bergen Tjossem

Bergen Tjossem is a conservation professional, nature nerd, and outdoor fanatic based in Vail, Colorado. His life and career have centered around protecting the natural environment and public lands that raised him, but as Ed Abbey put it, “It is not enough to fight for the land; It is even more important to enjoy it.” So when Bergen is not working to conserve land and wildlife habitat in his day job, you’ll find him ski touring before dawn, mountain biking until dark, running trails until his legs fall off, cooking over a campfire with his friends, or making the world’s best pizza with his wife, Rachel.
