Yet the number of people that get lost; has to be seen to be believed!
A woman and her daughter came staggering out of the woods behind my property yesterday, they had been lost for two days after they strayed from a bike trail. They had spent a wet night next to a tree, afraid of wild animals.
Didn't have the heart to tell them that there were a dozen farms, and a ranger station within three miles of where they were lost......

What do you expect they were CIVILIANS... Probably not a map between them.
