You’re casting from a ledge in the middle of nowhere in a foreign country. The ground buckles and down you go. Clutching a broken leg and unable to even crawl, you could be facing a life-threatening catastrophe. 
To up the odds of survival, consider evacuation insurance. Regular health or cancellation insurance will seldom cover helicopter rescues or long fourwheel drive trips to get you to a medical facility and back home. Chartering a private air ambulance or having to purchase multiple seats on a commercial airline to handle your stretcher, attendant and medical equipment can reach $100,000 or more, not to mention the total trip interruption. To review companies offering policies with varying coverages, benefits and costs, do a net search for “evacuation insurance.”
