    What do you wear?

    Then, I'll skip the wetsuit. I don't want to be hot. My current clothing does the job. I just get soaked!

    What do you wear?

    What do you usually wear when caving and spelunking? I wear an old pair of hiking pants with tights on under then for extra warmth. I'll wear a base wicking shirt, hoodie, and boots that I only wear caving. I've considered getting a thinner wetsuit and just wearing it.

    Falling overboard

    Have you ever fallen overboard from your kayak, canoe, or SUP? I haven't yet and I'm very happy about that. I can't swim very well and I don't like getting it water I can't see my feet through but I do kayak on it. However, I wear a life jacket at all times for my safety. But if I can help it...

    Tapering before a race

    Do you taper off and quit running a day or two before a big race? Or do you just keep running whether there is a race or not?

    Backing up your video

    How are you backing up your video or are you even doing that at all? I use the Seagate external hard drives. I used to buy smaller cheaper ones but now I film in 4K at 60fps, so I usually get 8TB drives.

    How many photos usually?

    While on a hike, how many photos do you usually take? If I'm using my phone, I usually take around 50 to 100 photos unless the hike is super short. If I'm using a DSLR camera, I usually take less than 20. How about you all?

    I should. I just restarted my guiding business. I need to carry enough to support a victim when I do that.

    Lightweight or Durable: which is more important?

    And something also good to note is that as new products get released, companies tend to be trying to make things lighter... For example, I just bought my first full-suspension mountain bike. It's alloy because I didn't want to pay $1,500 more for carbon but it's said to be the lightest alloy...

    Is Bat Protection just a way to keep cavers out?

    A lot of the Shawnee caves have camera on them now but it's for law enforcement operations. Equality Cave is highly surveilled.

    Gatekeeping Photographers

    Yeah. I'll usually backtrace their photos to see if others have posted something similar. Usually, someone posts the name of it and then I start being an internet detective and find out where haha
