Aloha Kuovonne,

Thanks, I think the booklet is an ok first attempt, but I am not totally satisfied with it. I really like the action shots idea, but since this was done before any of the hiking and camping trips...But I will add them into a future edition.

The what to do if lost part was gone over and they have practiced it and periodically get surprise questions on it in addition to regular review. The booklet is just a prop, it is the process of learning this that really matters.
