Les Stroud, host of the Outdoor Life Network's popular "Survivorman" show, said Friday he's proud to hear that yet another lost soul survived for days in the wilderness with help from his reality show.

Note the justification for living off snow for hydration. Les has a good point - as long as you are moving and creating body heat, the cooling effect of the snow is much less a concern than staying hydrated. Score one for the Canuck.

I like Les Stroud a lot.
