Welcome To My Igloo

This will be my home for the weekend. I got talked in to participating in the Festival du Voyageur's Survivor event. The choices for accommodations include a trapper's shack with a woodstove, teepee with an open pit fire or quinzhee with a single lightbulb for a heat. Our adventure begins on Friday night at 9:30 pm when we'll be quarantined on the grounds. Our challenge events take place Saturday and Sunday at 1 and 4 pm. Organizers are offering no clues about what the events might be. We are limited to one personal item apiece. You know I'll have my Buck knife in hand. We are not allowed to accept any outside food so when you come to visit, please don't feed the wildlife (us) no matter how ravenous we look.
