SAS 120 - Moving on Waterways
Moving on the waterways needs to be done very carefully. A large group will need several rafts. The first should carry no equipment or provisions, just the fittest group members to act as lookouts and warn of hazards. Waterfalls and rapids are often indicated by spray or mist. They can also be heard for some distance. If in doubt, moor the raft and reconnoitre on foot.

Wigwam
Wigwams take more time to build than open shelters, but your efforts will be doubly rewarded. Not only can the shelter be warmed by a small fire, reducing the need to collect a huge pile of wood, but the firelight reflects off the walls, providing cheery illumination for sitting out a long winter night.
