Episode 62B: Backpacker Feud

March 27, 2019

In Episode 62, we discuss a dozen ways to die in the backcountry - based on an article published in Backpacker magazine and recently updated on their online website. In the show, Beer Run and Therm Rider join me for a "Backpacker Feud" (patterned after the TV game show) to name the top ten killers in the backcountry. Not to make light of the top dangers in the wilderness ... but they are worth knowing and you'll most certainly be surprised by what is NOT on the list.

This podcast was recorded at a remote backcountry cabin near the Chattahoochee National Forest at Lake Burton. So it's not a studio recording - but the show is entertaining and informative nonetheless. It is also more rowdy than our normal podcasts, so we flagged this episode as a bonus show available to supporters of the podcast.
