Packing for Self-Reliance - Staying Safe and Prepared in the Backcountry
The wild is unpredictable. That's why we love it.
But when you're catching fish out in the sticks by yourself, you have to make peace with the fact that no one is coming to bail you out. That means you have to practice self-reliance, and that starts with having the stuff you need (or might need) if things go sideways.
In this episode, Ross talks about the importance of being prepared for your backcountry trips and what he carries in his day pack to ensure he's as safe as he can be in the woods or on a mountaintop, no matter how rough the terrain.
You can check out the full gear checklist here.
