You’re deep in the backcountry, on a multi-day backpacking trip, when the air thickens, the sky darkens, and smoke suddenly fills the air. What started as a peaceful trek has turned into a race against time. In “Smoke on the Trail,” we listen to Dar Kreimer tell her harrowing story of being forced to evacuate as a wildfire rapidly approached. We’ll explore how quickly conditions can change, the signs to watch for, and what you need to know and how to prepare and stay safe when wildfire smoke and flames threaten your path.
