Our Chief Pilot, Kory, captured this view at Leah Lake in The Sawtooths with our Critical Care crew members Reid, Ike, and Becky.

When hitting the trails this summer, it's important to hike smart and be prepared. Remember, relying solely on your cell phone may not be the best option in remote areas with possible lack of cellular coverage. Make sure your phone is fully charged before heading out and conserve battery by switching to airplane mode when not in use.

Keep in mind, your cell phone should NOT be your only light source, map, or survival kit as reception can be unpredictable. Stay safe and enjoy a wonderful weekend ahead!
