RightOnTrek Eco-Friendly Product Design is Finalist for Outdoor Retailer Innovation Awards

COLUMBIA FALLS, Mont. -- RightOnTrek was selected as a finalist in the 2023 Outdoor Retailer Innovation Awards. Already receiving multiple best-in-class awards and recognitions from Backpacker Magazine for their outdoor adventure meals, they now earn recognition for their packaging and product experience pairing as well.

RightOnTrek re-imagined the eating experience around its packaging and challenges the industry convention of heavy plastic aluminum-laden pouches. RightOnTrek's multi-layer package material is made of 100% bio-based materials sourced from tree pulp. Their meals are designed to cook in minutes, and taste great. The eco-friendly packaging is waterproof and still has the durability required for any outdoor adventure.

One of the biggest accomplishments in RightOnTrek meal packaging is that it's plastic-free.

The middle barrier layer is a material made from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) approved wood pulp.

The inner linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) is a bio-based plastic. The company that produces it is International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC), certified.

The convention for outdoor meals is to cook and freeze dry food in a factory, package for a 10 to 30-year shelf life, and the end user rehydrates their meal with warm water in the bag.

While the soak-in-a-bag method is convenient, it requires heavy packaging that can handle the boiling water without burning one's hands. Sourcing and processing the plastics and metals in this packaging do harm to multiple upstream ecosystems, and you certainly don't want any of it in your system or our environment after use.

RightOnTrek challenges the need for adventure-ready meals to have doomsday-worthy shelf life. Their meals cook fresh on the trail and are ready for your next adventure, with an 18-month shelf life.

"The material going into the packaging is as important as what it turns into after use. By choosing 100% bio-based packaging derived from renewable resources, we feel we are doing our best to maintain a sustainable life cycle on the consumers' behalf," said Eric Boxer Sustainability Engineer and Head Chef of RightOnTrek Meals.

RightOnTrek is thrilled to be recognized as one of top-30 Product of the Year finalists.

Its core team was in attendance at the Outdoor Retailer Snow Show from January 10-12, 2023 in Salt Lake City, Utah to join with leaders in outdoor product innovation: https://outdoorretailer.com/events-education/innovation-awards/.

RightOnTrek meals are available in retail stores throughout the US, and online. Learn more: https://rightontrek.com/meals/store

About RightOnTrek:

RightOnTrek is a leader and innovator in outdoor recreation services that make epic wilderness adventures and transformative outdoors experiences accessible to everyone.

E3 has recently signed agreements with multiple billion-dollar and multi-million-dollar companies, with more on the horizon in the near term.

"These strategic partners and joint ventures will bring unprecedented horsepower to the E3 brands and their customers. We have now been aligned with very close strategic partners to bring to our customers a new level of products, services, retail products, events, parks, experiences, publications, media, and more," said CEO Brian Johnson.

Lightning, Tragedy and Lessons Learned about Safety and Awareness: A Look Back at One of Lightning’s Deadliest Strikes

CUMBERLAND, Maine -- This Sunday marks the 70th anniversary of one of the deadliest lightning strikes in the U.S. and the National Lightning Safety Council is recalling the tragic event to spotlight the dangers of lightning, a common, yet underrated weather peril.

Lives were shattered in an instant on August 1, 1951 when lightning struck a tree at Wind Cave, Wyoming, killing four girl hikers and their leader and injuring nine others. The hikers were on a trek from a girls' camp in Darby Canyon to Wind Cave, Ice Cave, and back.

"Fortunately, most people are more aware of lightning's dangers now than they were in 1951," said John Jensenius, a lightning safety specialist with the National Lightning Safety Council (NLSC).

According to Jensenius, the Center for Disease Control logged 248 U.S. lightning deaths in 1951, which is one more than the combined total of 247 deaths the NLSC has documented for the past 10 years.

Karma Lambert, one of the most seriously injured survivors, vividly remembers events up until the time when lightning struck the tall tree that she and several others were sitting under. Lambert, now 84, attributes her survival to the quick actions of hiking guide, Fred Miller, and several older girls who repeatedly administered "artificial respiration."

Lambert's detailed account of the incident and her 2015 return to the site is featured on her daughter's website: https://watercolor365.com/my-mother-a-lightning-survivor-honors-victims/.

Now, 70 years after the event, Kelly Loosli, a professor of Animation and Film at Brigham Young University is interviewing survivors of the Wind Cave lightning incident for a documentary he's preparing. Loosli is the grandson of the then Teton County Sheriff Dwight Loosli, who organized men and horses to rescue the injured and transport the dead in the ensuing hours after the lightning strike.

"My interest stems from my grandfather's involvement in the rescue and the heroism of all those involved," said Loosli. "This was a terrible tragedy and I don't want to see anything like this ever happen again."

Lambert has advice for anyone headed out on a hike, "Check the forecast and if thunderstorms are predicted, just don't go."

Jensenius wants people to know what happened that tragic day in 1951 to stress the importance of monitoring weather conditions to limit the lightning threat.

"Consider canceling or postponing activities if thunderstorms are predicted and remember, when thunder roars, go indoors," advises Jensenius. "Lightning safety is a minor inconvenience that just might save your life."

The National Lightning Safety Council invites educators, government officials and others to help build lightning safe communities by learning more about lightning safety, lightning protection and risk reduction.

Visit the http://www.lightningsafetycouncil.org/ for shareable information, resources and safety tips. Inquiries about specific lightning concerns can also be addressed to Council members via contacts here: http://www.lightningsafetycouncil.com/LSC-About.html
