Progress

I drafted most of the Map & Compass section this week, as well as the names and identifications for all the trees in the treeline test.

I received the JMG book in the middle of the week that was published in the 1970s. This is going to help me next week when I go to Maine to work on mainly on canoeing and axemanship. It will be particularly useful for filling in any empty spaces of information that I may have. This weekend I also hope to finalize the extra pages that will go in the book (introduction, glossary, index, etc.).

Week of 4/8

This week I plan on drafting five chapters of the book, although hopefully more if I can. I am going to start with the written tests (Maine Issues; Wilderness Regulations; Environmental Concerns; etc.) and work my way to the physical examination chapters when I go to Maine next weekend. There, I can go through those tests first hand.
