Spreading Ashes, Ice Holes & On Trail Meet-Cutes!

This week on Gear Abby, Shawnté tackles four wildly different but totally relatable outdoor questions: from scattering ashes in national parks to finding love on trail, staying safe on frozen lakes, and picking the right rain shell without losing your mind.

In This Episode:

• Scattering Ashes in National Parks: Yes it's legal in most parks (with a permit).
• Trailside Romance: Myth or Magic? Love can happen out there (PCT marriages are real!)
• Ice Fishing 101 (w/ special guest: Stepdad Mike!): Warmth tools range from mittens to full-on heated shanty palaces.
• Rain Shell vs Poncho vs All the Fancy Fabrics: Don’t overcomplicate materials. Match the jacket to the activity, not the marketing hype.
