Some people would probably act smarter if they knew that there is no SAR or 911. Your best choice will always be to learn the mountain, not just by reading The Freedom of the Hills, but by being with the mountain, over time, listening to it and to your inner voice, never being against the mountain. Over the years, one man's full on conditions become a more familiar environment. Go out there. Be smart. Respect your limits. They will slowly stretch over time. But don't expect any rescue from the society that you are choosing to leave behind from for a while.
