ReplyDeleteEX- The Most exciting part was glancing at the gear, I look forward to seeing more of it later.
T-Do you think that if you set goals as a leader for your group, that you should either voice those goals or promise them? In the event that you do not succeed. (i.e. if you promise that you are going to summit a mountain then you end up not being able to.)
Y-This relates to me because I want to end up in the field of Adventure Education.
