Trip Plan
A Trip Plan not only prepares you for the challenges of the hike, camping trip, backpacking trip, or canoe trip; it also protects you. Always give your trip plan to at least two other adults who are not attending the activity. Simply make a copy or snap a picture and send it to their phone. Doing this informs them where you plan to go, when you will return, who is going, why you are going, and what you are taking.
