What is it like to backpack totally off the grid, with no cell phone signal, no service, no electricity, no grocery stores and other daily conveniences we maybe take for granted? Garrett and I spent 4 days backpacking and camping off-grid in Desolation Wilderness California to find out! I also did a solo sunrise hike and had the entire sunrise all to myself - big win!
