Mike Kuper has dedicated his life to serving his community. As a Lieutenant with the Rifle City Police, a member of the SWAT Team, and as a Search and Rescue member. Mike joins us to discuss common mistakes people make in the backcountry that get them into trouble. He shares stories and offers advice that should be well received since he has decades of mountaineering and woodsmanship experience. 

Join us as we discuss key topics on gear, understanding your environment, and being properly prepared to hit the backcountry. We need more Mike Kuper's in this country. He's a hero and is someone who defines selflessness in a world too self-obsessed.
