Description
Because Things Don’t Always Go to Plan…
When emergencies happen in the outdoors, there’s no time to flip through a 100-page manual. This compact backcountry emergency guide is built for quick decisions and real-world use. Designed for hikers, bikers, trail runners and anyone who spends time in the backcountry, it features 12 clearly laid out scenarios covering the most common backcountry emergencies from wildlife encounters and injuries and natural disasters.
Small enough to carry yet smart enough to matter, each section provides simple, actionable steps that can be followed on the spot with no prior reading or training required. Color-coded tabs, clear icons, and tough, weatherproof materials make this guide easy to grab, read, and rely on when it matters most. It also comes with a carabiner for clipping to a pack and an emergency whistle for added safety.
Built for the Backcountry
Printed on ultra-tough Rite in the Rain® paper, this booklet is:
- Water-resistant (yes, it can survive a downpour, dunk in the river, or your sweaty backpack)
- Durable and fade-proof
- Resistant to mud, grime, and trail abuse
- Made from FSC-certified, recyclable materials
Note: While this booklet is built to handle wet trails, sweaty hands, and surprise storms, it’s not indestructible. Extended exposure to heavy, soaking rain may eventually wear it down. For best results, stash it inside your pack during serious downpours.
