About this episode
Today, we’re talking about what to pack for a day hike — because nothing ruins a beautiful overlook faster than realizing you forgot water, snacks, or, you know… common sense.Whether you’re heading out on a quick 2-mile out-and-back, a strenuous loop in the wilderness, or just trying to survive the heat in Death Valley, this episode will help you make sure you’ve got everything you need without overpacking like you’re moving into the woods permanently.We focus on navigation, the right pack, hydration, food, clothing, first aid, and emergency supplies!
