Daryl Miller has been a risk management role model of mine since I first heard some of his safety messaging based on 18 years as a Ranger and Chief Ranger with the Denali National Park.

I visited Daryl at his house a few years ago and was so enthralled by his stories that I asked if I could start a recorder.

Daryl’s path took him from Vietnam to the rodeo to a career as a Denali Ranger, where he initiated significant changes to the Ranger training and risk management strategies.

Daryl was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2000. I was interested to hear how Daryl managed the transition from a lifetime of rescuing others to being “just Daryl.”
