Ep 14: Why Others Die in What You “Would Have Survived”

The real killer out in the wilderness may not be Mother Nature, but rather Attitude. The story of Wall Street trader Ekaterina Matrosova and the White Mountains. A personal experience of my own of finding myself overwhelmed and in over my head. "Unknown unknowns". The reason I hate locator beacons. What I personally find most difficult when it comes to preparedness. A summary of my most recent excursion into the backcountry, all of the gear that pooped out on me, and how you can see that Adventure for yourself.
