Welcome to episode 57 of Explore's Podcast!
It's peak hiking season right now—so we have a special guest today who's going to talk to us all about hiking safety. But don't worry—we'll make it interesting and fun.
Today, we are chatting with Dr. Rob Scanlon, author of "Surviving the Trail: Five Essential Skills to Prepare Every Hiker for Adventure's Most Common Perils."
Rob's an ICU doctor and an avid hiker. He blended those skills and passions and became an author so he could educate hikers on how to PREVENT injury on the trail, not just respond to it. Framed around real-world case studies and organized in a digestible and newbie-friendly format, this book is an outdoors-person's must have.
So, let's find out more about Rob—and really dig into why he wrote this book—so we can all survive the trail this season (and have more fun outdoors).

EP56: Jason Crowley—Crafting Clothes for Canadians (and getting more people outdoors!)
Episode 56 is live now! On this episode, we're joined by Jason Crowley—founder of the outdoor apparel brand Northern Sun. Jason's been a friend of Explore's for a few years, as we found our values and our passion for the Canadian outdoors aligned. Explore inspires and educates; Northern Sun makes the apparel.
So, we joined forces to create Explore's first-ever technical apparel collab, on sale until September 30, 2026. But there's so much more to the story that this. We wanted to dig into Jason's story and uncover exactly how he was able to launch an apparel brand in a competitive market, what goes into creating these pieces and why leaning into the brand's Canadian identity is so important to him.
It's an inspiring chat—we know you'll enjoy it.
