Wildlife & Bear-Aware Brief
Produce a region-agnostic wildlife safety brief: food storage options (PCT hang, canister), cooking triangle, encounter scripts, and seasonal behavior notes.
Summarize LNT principles with backcountry examples (human waste, gray water, fires, wildlife). Provide campsite impact scoring and a debrief checklist.
Create a camp-specific weather playbook: reading clouds, barometer cues, shelter hardening, lightning 30/30 rule, and tree line strategies. Include a go/no-go checklist.
Provide a decision tree for water sources (clear creek, silty pond, snow), with methods (boil, filter, chemical, UV), contact times, and redundancy rules. Add a contamination risk matrix.
Design a 3-day meal plan at 2,800 kcal/day with macros, cook vs cold-soak options, fuel estimates, and pack volume notes. Output shopping list and prep timeline.
Create a modular 3-season gear list with must/optional items and weight targets for weekend (1–2 nights) and multi-day (3–5 nights). Include an ultralight swap table and a CSV checklist ready for printing.
Act as a wilderness guide. Given terrain, season, elevation, and local wildlife, produce a step-by-step decision flow for choosing a low-impact campsite (wind break, drainage, widowmaker check, distance from water). Include a printable 12-point inspection card.
