Dan's Outside 
iPod in the Backcountry
Starting a few years ago I noticed people carrying their recorded music into the backcountry. I’ve resisted for a long time, even though I’m a college music faculty member. This weekend, on the spur of the moment, I decided to toss my iPod mini and a pair of small earphones into my pack as I departed for my 3-day Yosemite pack trip.
I’m glad to report that, as usual, I had music going through my mind almost the entire weekend – but that I wasn’t even tempted to turn on the iPod once. I think I passed the test… ;-)
