One of the most epic excursions into the backcountry of my life. Unfortunately before technology allowed for quality videos using phones and other small devices.
Maryland. Minus 8°F. Major scarcity of water. Tried to dry out wool socks by fire, while heating feet next to fire with my boots on. Bottoms of socks AND boots burned out. I learned important lessons on this trip that have continued to inform my approach and preparation for unexpected and extreme conditions.

What is your theory? I don't have a dog in the hunt about this, but I was just wondering with 30 or more Bigfoot sightings every year how come no one ever bags one? That is the one thing that makes me doubt. I read the sightings which are full of tales of people fleeing in terror, but almost no one ever opens fire. What do you guys think?
