Justin Vititoe is a husband, father, military veteran, has a lot of survival knowledge, and was a participant on season 2 of the History Channel's survival show, Alone. On this episode we hear Justin tell a story of getting lost on Boulder Mountain, Utah while on a wilderness experience with David Holladay. This turned into an intensely personal and spiritual experience for Justin with his life being saved by David doing something that likely went against everything he knew to be a good decision.
