Something for the minimalist to concider

https://craigmedred.news/2017/03/03/a-survivors-tale/

I'm an Alaskan, live in the Interior and am very experienced in real cold. Heck, I and my wife even ride far bikes in the winter.
Often times there is a hair thin line between being a victorious hero and being a corpse. Tho I applaud the effort these ITI racers put out. I really don't feel too bad for the situation. If competing compromises living. It's really kind of a dumb gamble. Imho.

Phil Shoemaker : "I went to a .30-06 on a fine old Mauser action. That worked successfully for a few years until a wounded, vindictive brown bear taught me that precise bullet placement is not always possible in thick alders, at spitting distances and when time is measured in split seconds. Lucky to come out of that lesson alive, I decided to look for a more suitable rifle."
