Mountain Readiness West: Training, Fellowship & New Mutual Aid Platform App

Brent the Bald Eagle reports from Project 223 at Mountain Readiness West, a three-day preparedness festival at Veterans Camp Ponderosa featuring hands-on classes like Stop the Bleed, situational awareness, land navigation, wilderness medicine, youth training, and more, plus community fellowship and evening events. The episode also launches the Mutual Aid Platform app — a private, group-focused tool with skill modules, readiness scoring, a gear hub, shared purchases, and messaging to help teams organize, track progress, and build resilient local communities.
