(Hint: make sure you store your equipment INSIDE your shelter... One polar explorer left his shovel outside and wasn't able to dig himself out for SIX WEEKS after a snow storm buried it his tent!)

How close to water are you if you spot a frog?

All of the answers to these questions, and MANY MORE, are waiting for you inside...
