Imagine you're deep in the backcountry — out of reach, off-grid, low on supplies — and a drone buzzes overhead with exactly what you need: a fresh oxygen canister, a med kit, or just the extra fuel you forgot to pack.

That’s not science fiction anymore. On Mount Everest, drones are already saving lives.

And while most of us aren't climbing to 8,848 meters, this breakthrough has big implications for overlanders, bikepackers, and everyday explorers who push into the wild.

Let’s take a look at how drone-delivered oxygen is changing Everest — and how it might change the way we all adventure.

Most kids today can swipe before they can walk a trail. They know how to scroll, but not how to read clouds. They recognize app icons better than animal tracks. Something’s gone missing, and it’s not in a lost-and-found box. It’s out there. In the mud. In the woods. In the questions that come when there’s nothing else competing for your attention. This is why we go outside. And why we keep going back.

Learn how to build a personalized first-aid kit for overlanding, hiking, and family adventures. From bee stings on the trail to emergency preparedness in remote locations, this practical guide covers essential supplies, organization tips, and training resources—plus a free downloadable checklist.

Adventure isn’t just about where you go—it’s about how you get there. I’ve spent years piecing together overland rigs, finding beauty in the imperfect, the beat-up, the budget-built.

Life has a way of complicating even the best-laid plans.
