Briefing for Entry Into A More Harsh Environment—Morgan Hite

People always talk about what you can’t take home with you after a NOLS course. You can’t take home the backpack, or at least it has no place in your daily life. You can’t take home the rations, and if you did, your friends wouldn’t eat them. You can’t take home the mountains. We seem to have to get rid of all of our connections to this place and our experiences here. It’s frustrating and can be depressing.

Thanks for the concerns, but we did not feel a thing down here at the bottom of the continent…
