“Take the road less travelled.”

It’s solid advice, especially for getting deep into the backcountry to ditch the crowds. If you’re an explore reader, you know some of the best trailheads and rec sites are located at the end of forestry service roads. You also know that rugged roads also mean flat tires and unexpected breakdowns. Whether you’re stranded on an unpaved backroad or along one of Canada’s highways (notorious for spotty or absent cell service), our Road Safety Bundle turns your glove box into a compact command centre. Treat wounds, get seen with high-visibility lighting and keep hydrated while you wait for help. It’s an essential you’ll be grateful to have as road conditions worsen in fall and winter.

1. LED Safety Beacon
2. Best Backcountry Insulated Bottle
3. LED Camping Flashlight
4. A free copy of explore magazine
