>>2387341Pic was conceived by The Mountaineers, a mountaineering group in the Pacific Northwest. It’s geared toward emergencies; day hikes in the mountains that accidentally turn into overnight hikes. It’s also generalized. They list broad terms instead of specifics, such as “fire” instead of “bic lighter,” and “insulation” instead of “rain gear, layers to keep you warm, a ground pad to keep the cold ground at bay,” and so on. Because it was made by a mountaineering group, sun protection was seen as a priority, which is why it has its own group.
