This podcast dives deep into the rise of exoskeletons in the backcountry—wearable robotic systems designed to help hikers, rescue teams, and explorers move farther, faster, and safer in rugged terrain. Exoskeletons can transform wilderness travel by reducing fatigue, protecting joints, and opening the outdoors to those once limited by injury, age, or physical strain. But with innovation comes controversy. Does using exoskeletons in nature challenge the spirit of self-reliance that defin...

From tiny insects navigating a single blade of grass to the dazzling architecture of lichen forests, land snorkeling reveals a universe at ground level. We’ll talk about how the practice began, an...
