Harriman Hikers received a nice email the other day from from Marlene Kleinman, Educational Director at Camp Price (Prentice, WI)

I just wanted to take the time to send you a quick thank you note on behalf of our campers here at Camp Price! I’m the educational director at the camp and we’ve recently began a winter hiking/camping program that requires our campers to go through a short hiking safety/survival skill course. In our research we came across your page (http://harrimanhikers.org/links) and really found it to be helpful, so from all of us, thank you!

As a small token of our appreciation, we thought we’d send along a few other sites my campers actually came across during their research. We figured that it was such an important topic, the more resources the merrier Here they are:

• Hiking Safety: http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/28708.html
• Navigating with a Map and Compass: http://hikinghq.net/compass/compass_nav.html
• Creating a Fire for Survival: http://www.fireplacespot.com/natures-fireplaces
• Building a First Aid Kit: http://www.wta.org/hiking-info/basics/like-your-life-depends-on-it-building-your-first-aid-kit

Harriman Hikers would like to thank the Camp Price Campers for their helpful and useful links as well as commend them for their resourcefulness!
