Backpacking Light Podcast

I learn so much from this podcast! From basics to technical information and skills that I had no idea were so important. I recommend the episode about how bears smell all the time as I live in PA and we have our fair share of wild bears and desensitized food motivated bears in our trail spaces. My favorite episodes are the ones about business management. As a director of a small service oriented non-profit those particular episodes are surprisingly useful and relevant to my own experience, and have helped more with “CE” and making me feel right on track with my own personal style of change management than would be expected from any podcast. There’s a lot of value in the Backpacking Light podcast!

I’m not sure there is any podcast I look forward to hearing more than Backpackinglight. I appreciate the academic voice and application to gear, techniques and adventure. My BPL Life membership is one of the best purchases I ever made.

I’ve been a life member since 2006, but just started listening to the podcast. Not surprised at the level of detail & useful information. I’m very experienced but still learned a lot from the pod on lightning in the backcountry. It was easily the most realistic, succinct info for backpackers I’ve seen on that topic. The first aid kit info was also great. I look forward to selectively listening to the other topics I’m interested in while xc skiing or hiking out my door☺️

Thanks for a great show! No fluff or filler. Intelligent reviews.
