SURVIVAL GUIDE - REQUIRED READING
Oh my! This is the Survival Guide for 2007! Where is the Survival Guide for 2008!? Hang tight, it'll be up around the beginning of June, we promise.
The desert is a place worlds away from that to which most of us are accustomed, and is governed by physical laws that cannot be ignored. You are responsible for your own survival, safety, and comfort. Read this Survival Guide carefully and make sure EVERYONE in your group reads it as well.
