Survivor Sisters

By Kristina Grish

Jerri Manthey lasted 27 days on Survivor; Alicia Calaway hung in there for 24. The two used sticks to brush their teeth; toothpaste was nonexistent. Jerri lived on tortillas; Alicia argued with a tribe member over a chicken. They spooned to keep warm on 40° nights. In the Australian outback any comfort was a luxury. So who better to test the latest outdoor apparel and accessories than this daring duo? Here's what made the grade when we journeyed with Jerri and Alicia to Baja California. Accommodations and kayaks were provided by Baja Expeditions (800-843-6967, www.bajaex.com), an eco-adventure outfitter based in San Diego.
