It's fun to take mild peril and up the stakes.

I hope you never find out just how much the wilderness doesn't like humans.

We all made it out unscathed, after about eight summers of doing it together. We were all in our twenties, and believed we were immortal. I haven't been in many years, and won't be going again. It probably IS foolish today with the options available, but still something is lost when we're never incommunicado anymore.
