Problem #1
We have three trees in our site.We are miles away from civilization. We take our rope and tie it around the trees. We start Putting tree branches and leaves and grasses on the rope to create a roof. We have a fire pit outside for cooking. We also cook inside on our little fire if it is a bad rainy day.
Problem #2
Are house is destroyed from snow and we need to build a shelter. First we dig a trench with a shovel. Then we put a couple logs over the trench so it will be a roof for snow or rain. Then we put twigs and leaves over the trench and the logs so we can be warm.
Problem #3
Some food, plants and animals, are the squirrel and chipmunks. How we catch them is a pit with leaves over it with berrys on top. Some plants are Blackberrys, Arrowheads, and the Burdock plant.
How we protect the food is we take our tarp and put are food in it and tie it so no food will get out. Then we hoist it into a tree.
Problem #4
The tracks that we saw were bear tracks. To keep the bear out of our food we will build a fort of rocks and pile them upon each other and glue them with clay so it looks like one big rock. And the dangers that we might face could be that the bear could tackle you, hurt you, kill you, or break a bone.
Problem #5
How we would set the leg is take a strong, sturdy stick that is about 1inch to two inches and tie is to his or her leg.How we help the member with the pain is we make sure he is well with everything. How we carrie the member down the mountain is we take two long branches and lay them two feet or so apart. Then we take smaller branches antie them in the middle of the carrieing tool. We all then go get leaves for beding. Then we all carrie him/her down to a house and from there they call the emergencey department. Thhen to the hostpltal. We call their mom and they come andwe all go home after we get our supplies.

Animal Expert:
- To fish you must carve a hook out of wood.
- If you ever faced a bear and it spotted you, you should stand still and never run away or it will attack.
- to roast an animal, you put it on a sharp stick and twirl the stick over the fire until done.
- Before cooking it, you must take the guts and cords out and throw it in the woods so the animals can eat it.
