On the hike we set out signs signifying different foods for the animal survival game which we planned to play . later in the day. When we returned from our° hike we prepar- ed ourcampfires,, but did not light them. We went on to calculate the height of trees using the triangula- tion method. When 'we completed our assignment we went back to camp. We prepared and ate lunch. After we cleaned up camp we started the survive' game.
