We'll see whether that'll keep me from becoming a statistic. I'm already breaking one of the rules by traveling alone. Don't worry, I'll try to keep the people who need to know my whereabouts in the know.

I do some wilderness stuff alone but like you say, let someone know when you leave, how long you're (expected to be) going for and when you're likely to return, and where you're expecting to go of course; they can check in and alert the authorities if you don't return. You know all thins though.
Don't overestimate me. My book-learnin' is vast as the Great Lakes, but my practical wilderness experience outside of basic country life is small as a mud puddle.
Ah ok, well having some theoretical skills isn't a bad thing, it's amazing how quickly people that have read a thing or two can adapt that knowledge when in the field.
