This is a top view of the trail Kent, Hannah, Jack, and I took in the Spring of 2007. We learned an important lesson about both bringing an appropriate amount of water and researching water sources in advance of the trip. ;)

This is the same trail, but from a side view in order to provide perspective. We started on the right and ended on the top of Turk Mountain on the left.

This area is for the purpose of developing a wilderness survival training program for parents and children.

Based on my own limited experience, I already know that both of my adventures into the wild with my children were fulfilling and trying. I would like to develop a program that would help prepare families for what they will encounter in the wild with a little less drama than I experienced.

Please submit your own experiences on the experiences thread for this page (scroll down).

Please check out this site on wilderness survival training and provide feedback: http://www.wildernessawareness.org

I am not familiar with the direction of this site, but it appears that it will be a good resource: http://wildernesssurvival.wetpaint.com
