Adam Shoalts 

Westaway Explorer

Adam Shoalts, PhD, is the Westaway Explorer-in-Residence at the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. His expeditions range from mapping rivers to archaeological projects, but Shoalts is best known for his long solo wilderness journeys, including crossing alone nearly 4,000 km of Canada’s Arctic. Named one of the “greatest living explorers” by CBC and declared “Canada’s Indiana Jones” by the Toronto Star, Shoalts’s latest quest was retracing the route of a lost explorer, the subject of his new book Vanished Beyond the Map. His other #1 national bestselling books include Where the Falcon Flies, The Whisper on the Night Wind, A History of Canada in 10 Maps, and Beyond the Trees: A Journey Alone Across Canada's Arctic.

Preppers Meet

No one plans on twisting a knee or stepping off the trail. But accidents happen. Carrying a small handful of items and knowing what to do with them can get you back home as soon as possible. As more of us venture outdoors to enjoy the peace and healthy exercise, we must remember that there is always risk. Just like you wear your seatbelt in the car, and lifejacket in the boat, you need to practice being safe outdoors. Learn the few basic steps so you will always have a safe experience.
