Podcast Episode 134 | Sleep Quality in the Backcountry
Update: 2025-10-06
Description
Backcountry sleep is fragile, and when it breaks down, recovery, judgment, and safety are at risk. In this episode, we examine the forces that fragment rest, including altitude, stress, weather, injury, ground comfort, and sleep/shelter gear systems, and how they disrupt the deep and REM sleep required for physical and cognitive recovery. We’ll also explore practical, evidence-based strategies to protect your rest so you can stay sharp, resilient, and ready for the trail.
