Part of being prepared means knowing the scope of what I'm getting into. If I prepare for what I see is the potential it makes everything else much more pleasant.
"You are asking too many questions and following too many suggestions for me to believe you really know what you are doing or placing your family into"
Isn't that the point of asking questions; to know more about what I'm facing? To learn more so I may decide if the potential risk-reward ratio isn't in my favor? If I do not explore the ideas and experiences of others how am I to know what does or does not work for me with my equipment, situation, or potential plans? It seems like doing the opposite of what I'm doing would be more of an indicator of incompetence to me.
It would also make for a very boring story... guy camps in cold temperatures, nothing goes wrong, there was no drama, only good times to be had.
I wouldn't watch it.
