Quoted By:
When my folks were backpacking across Canada in the 80s, they spent a lot of time in the kind of wilderness that is 50 or 100 miles from civilization. One day they were canoeing across a lake when a huge storm rolled in, and they barely made it onto a tiny, rocky island. They spent the night burning ticks off each other and praying they'd make it until morning.
God willing I'll have an experience that intense someday.
