## Resource

Let’s all resolve to go backpacking more this year! This episode keeps our priorities straight: 1- laugh, 2- backpack, 3- everything else. In this light hearted episode, Carrie and Molly tell the story of how they got connected with Highlander, and all about what the backpacking festival is like at Big Bear Lake, California. Carrie provides details on a health issue that almost kept her from hitting the trails last June and provides insight in her journey from sepsis to hitting the trails again. Molly and Carrie discuss specifics on food prep for those interesting in joining them at Highlander Big Bear Lake in 2026. Please help! Send your backpacking meal recipes via comments on this episode, or reach out on our social media channels. We’d love to try your dehydrated creations.
