The Importance Of Trip Plans For Outdoor Adventures : AdvenQuest: "Let’s say you were lost in the backcountry and you could only choose one item to increase your chance of survival, what would it be…GPS? map? compass? matches? knife? emergency blanket? survival manual? The list is endless, and while all those things can improve your odds, there is one item most of us never think about,it’s a Trip Plan. The best part is, unlike all that survival gear, it doesn’t add any weight to your pack.
Pilots call them “Flight Plans”, backcountry canoeists call them “Float Plans” and backpackers call them “Hike Plans”, but whatever you call them, a Trip Plan can add an element of safety to your outdoor adventures by giving your potential rescuers a time and place to start looking for you if you don’t arrive at your destination."
