Just a very brief reminder to sign-up for the gear giveaway I've got going right now. On Wednesday of this week, I'll pick three winners of the Survival Medic from Adventure Medical Kits and ship them out ASAP for the holidays. As I've mentioned before, this great little kit contains some nice items that could potentially save your life if you ran into unexpected trouble on the trail. Inside the waterproof and sealed pack, you'll find an emergency blanket, basic medical supplies, a safety whistle, fire starting materials, and more. And since the whole package weighs in at just under 5 ounces, you have no excuse not to take it with you everywhere.
To sign-up to win, just drop me an e-mail at kungfujedi@gmail.com with the subject of "Survival Medic." Now here's where it gets a bit tricky (only kidding!), in the body of the message tell me where your favorite outdoor destination is. It could be in your own backyard or on the other side of the planet, but it is that special place that you love to escape to.
Entires so far have ranged from places like the Rocky Mountains and the Florida Everglades, to the Himalaya in Nepal and the Serengeti in Tanzania. Your e-mails have confirmed one thing to me, the readers of this blog are a well traveled, adventurous group, and I'm happy to be a part of that community.
Winners will be picked late in the day on Wednesday and alerted soon there after. I'll post the names of the winners, and their destinations on Thursday, and get the packages out soon there after.
Thanks and good luck!
