Welcome to the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue Podcast! Also known as SLASR.
Join an experienced search and rescue volunteer and his friend as they discuss all things related to hiking and search and rescue in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
This week we are joined by our friend Dave Dillon. Dave runs a successful YouTube Channel nd podcast called Chase the Summit where he highlights Trail and Ultra Running, Hiking, Climbing, Fitness Tech, and a variety of other topics including beer. We have a bunch of questions to cover with Dave about gear, running and hiking tech. Later in the show, in preparation for shoulder season and warmer weather, Stomp is going to give us an overview of forest roads.
