Best-Selling Author

He is an internationally recognized professional in his field and the best-selling author of two books on survival and preparedness, 98.6 Degrees: The Art of Keeping Your Ass Alive and When All Hell Breaks Loose: Stuff You Need To Survive When Disaster Strikes. His expertise in practical outdoor skills comes from a lifetime of personal experience including two years spent living in a brush shelter in the woods where he slept on pine needles and cooked over an open fire.

As a result of his skill and dedication, Cody has been featured in dozens of national and international media sources including The Today Show, The Discovery Channel, The History Channel, Dateline NBC, CBS News, USA Today, The New York Times, The Donny and Marie Show and CBC Radio One in Canada.

In September of 1999 Cody was honored as the third person in history to appear on the cover of Backpacker magazine, which featured a story on his skills and philosophies of survival.

When not teaching for his own school, Cody is an adjunct faculty member at Yavapai College and a faculty member at the Ecosa Institute. He teaches with rare intensity and humor to individuals, groups, schools, and various organizations throughout the United States and abroad.

Cody lives in a self-designed, self-reliant, passive solar earth home in the high-desert wilderness of Northern Arizona in which he catches rain, composts wastes, and pays nothing for heating and cooling.
