I think its very important to make sure that your knowledge and skills are sharp when going into the field. I havent been as involved with mountain and adventure lifestyle the last few years and wanted to catch up with someone who has been active throughout the years since COVID and just chat gear. These conversations never get old to me and are as important as any discussion on any topic if youre the type of person who goes off trail. Anyway, I hope you find some value here because I think its critical to stay on top of advancements and if we cant get out ourselves, we need to talk to those who are.

Here are a few links from todays talk.
