Manage episode 482511605 series 3565405
From Yosemite run-ins with the highway patrol to six-foot flames caused by DIY fire starters, this episode covers the real-life risks of venturing into nature and how to prep like a pro... even if you’re just going for “a quick hike.”
Jimmy and Megan talk trail safety, packing tips, camping fails, and how to purify water with everything from iodine tablets to French-press-style filters.
Whether you’re heading into the backcountry or just camping with the kids, we’ve got you covered with gear, guidance, and cautionary tales to help you stay safe outdoors.
Bonus: the bleach-to-water ratio for emergency purification (yep, Megan did the math).
