If you're willing, I'm asking you to take the lead on planning all of this. Ron Hann and I will be working to your direction. It may make sense to have Ron do the Type 4 and me to do the Compass stations, as before. But I wouldn't be adverse to working a different station.

You'll need to set up the clues for all the Search Types. You may want to use the same map and layout as last time. Map is on the link above.

However, there may be some snow cover, so the kind of clues may be a bit different. Or white index cards may be very appropriate on white snow. We may have to adapt and improvise.

You may want to cover the area with tracks to avoid having the searchers use tracking instead of Type 1 - 4 search techniques.
