Ep 13: Feeling Out Your Topo Map

2 years ago
244

Topographical maps allow you to get a feel for the woods before you ever get out there. I try never to go into the woods without a couple of them. In this episode I talk about how I use topo maps to get a pretty accurate idea of of what it’s going to feel like in the backcountry long before my feet ever hit the trail. Also, I tell the story of William H. Rankin, one of only two known people to ever survive passing straight down through a cumulonimbus storm cloud. Finally, I give a puppy update.
