In this episode of the Bear Grease Podcast, host Clay Newcomb welcomes Rob Argue, a retired Canadian conservation office to share the harrowing events when he and his partner’s canoe capsizes in icy water in the Ontario backcountry. This life-threatening event tests his physical, mental, and emotional limits and capacity as hypothermia sets in as they put their trust in an emergency locator beacon. In this story you may even learn some life-saving tips if you find yourself in a similar situation.
