I don't know anything about this but it brings up another question:
Isn't there insurance that will cover the cost of an emergency
backcountry rescue?  What types of insurance have PCTers used?  Any?

A friend of mine was telling me that you can purchase temporary accident

insurance in the event that you need to bounce into a medical clinic or 
hospital. Any body know anything about this?
