Outside Magazine, October 2006

Heroes and Friends
The Buddy System
We aren't asking you to hold hands and tell each other how you feel. But admit it: when you're stuck under a leaky rain fly with nothing but a wet pack of matches and your own soggy thoughts, solitaire loses its appeal. Call them your posse, your entourage, whatever—but know that the best friendships in life are forged in the wild and on the road. In the pages that follow, Outside celebrates the power of two—or, if you can't stand to be nice, the joys of a really bad feud.
