Mike, any idea when they'll start? I couldn't see anything like a time table.
The premise is good, but I wanted to see him just take a standardized PSK (doesn't have to be COTS, it just as to be the same everywhere), a pocket knife or multi, and a water bottle.
Wouldn't that just prove he was a fool? Carrying the same gear for an alaskan midwinter and a sarahan midsummer would be simply a death sentence. We already know the result. No one is suggesting that you can last everywhere with just those items. When you are in different places and seasons you should adapt your gear to it.
There's a good point in what you are saying. But this is Les not Bear. He doesn't have a camera crew who will call for help if he's in trouble.
I'm glad he goes through all that to make the shows. He doesn't have to die for them.
