Outdoor education is as much art as science. That means it is just as likely that there will be a range of more or less appropriate answers as one correct verifiable answer. Time & space are limitations that result in over-simplification of suggested answers.
Every attempt has been made to ensure that information provided in Footprints & these answers is reliable, accurate & relevant. We hope that both workbook & our on-line support for it are useful resources for outdoor educators & a fun way of learning for kids.
