In this episode we welcome back Fred for another conversation surrounding outdoor survival. This time, he brings along his son, Daniel, as they recall their most recent backpacking excursion down the east coast.  They covered about 47 miles in 3 days. Even when you're going on a shorter backpacking trip, it's important to decide how heavy of a pack you're willing to carry vs. how prepared you want (or need) to be.  Topics covered in this episode include: footwear, water carries and resources, wildlife, mental toughness, skin protection, and food packing and preparation.  It's always a comfort to have a hot meal at the end of a long, exhausting hike.

On today’s episode, we are speaking with Rachel again to talk more about how she raises her children in the current digital age that we are all a part of.  “They have to learn how to fail. That is when you learn, and that is when you grow, and that is when you figure out what you're good at and where your god given talent should be applied. Not everybody should get a trophy, and we are in indeed in an everybody gets a trophy stage of life. I feel very comfortable saying that is an absolute disservice to our kids. They need to fail. They need to feel the failure and know that it is a huge part of being successful, and they need to know what they're good at so that they can apply themselves in a way to make a difference.”  Don't forget to support our friends at Valley Food Storage.

And what's interesting is when you have them outside or you help condition them to think that way they forget about it once they're outside or once they're distracted doing something physical. I've noticed that the device is in the back of their head, but it's not something that they immediately go to..." Want to add some new freeze-dried food to your homestead?
