Su questo libro

Dalla quarta di copertina

Twenty-five true life scenarios probe the concerns that are part of every canoe trip--from quiet local streams to the Boundary Waters and beyond. Some scenarios describe life-threatening situations; others detail inefficient canoeing and camping practices or philosophical or health concerns. All pose a serious problem which you must solve! The solutions aren¦t obvious, and often, there is more than one right answer. Give each problem your best shot then read the ACTION TAKEN scene which tells exactly what happened. Then, see the PROBABLE BESTCOURSE OF ACTION, which suggests a reasonable plan. Have fun discussing options as you try to beat the experts who, you¦ll discover, don¦t always make the right decisions. Be aware of the consequences of a wrong choice and the difficulty of putting things right after the fact. Interspersed among the life-threatening scenarios are in-depth answers to the most frequently asked questions about canoeing and canoe camping.
