Understanding what counts as an emergency is crucial. Devices like SPOT and InReach let you call for help and alert others about your situation, potentially saving your life. But when do you really need rescue versus just some assistance? We discuss different methods for handling emergencies and consider how some countries charge for search and rescue. Planning ahead, like getting to know people on forums, could be helpful in areas where rescue costs money or isn't readily available. Additionally, we talk about micro adventures for those with limited time and tight budgets, exploring the best destinations for the most rewarding experience without breaking the bank.
