The Trip Plan
Heading Outdoors? Leave a Plan.
NO ONE EVER expects to get into trouble outdoors. But, a turn in the weather, mistake in judgment, unexpected injury, equipment failure, or sudden nightfall can quickly change any recreational outing into a crisis. Does anyone know where you have gone and when you expect to return?
Have you completed a TRIP PLAN and sent it with a friend or family member?
