Thanks. I realize what you are saying is probably right. I feel like sometimes though I have to try either way. You can learn at least some of these things without getting banged up too bad. But the ego and cardio take a hit no matter how you do it.
I take it out at least every couple months. That photo was actually taken at a friend's property in Owen county, but I've been to the Badlands a number of times, with the next trip scheduled for May.
Thanks for the rep. Yeah, there is a lot of potential value from certain situations in training that typically get overlooked in the name of safety. I think it's important to address all aspects of training, but in appropriate contexts repectively.
