-title: Survival Journal - Introduction
----
-
-This article is an introduction to the history of a month of my life
-from July 24, 1973, to August 24, 1973. Officially, the experience was
-titled "Youth Acculturation Course" hosted by Brigham Young University.
-Unofficially, I always call it the desert survival course. The
-experience had such a strong impact on my life that I want to include it
-in its entirety in my life history. The following set of articles are
-almost verbatim copies of the journal I kept while attending the course.
-Other articles in this book are based on specific events from the course
-and have been embellished by my memory after more than 40 years have
-elapsed. (See [Melody's Malady](/stories/11_Melodys_Malady.html) and [Chocolate Waterfalls](/stories/12_Chocolate_Waterfalls.html)).
-
-The events that led to my signing up for this course are unique. My
-brother Tom and I attended a fireside that was designed as a recruiting
-tool to attract students to take the course during their summer break.
-We were both quite captured by the grand sense of adventure the
-presentation portrayed and signed up to take the course together. It
-turned out that Tom dropped the course for reasons unknown to me, but I
-chose to take it without his companionship. I was planning to go on my
-mission at the end of the summer and hoped it would be a good
-character-building experience that would serve me well in the mission
-field. Before I left home to go take this course, I had received my
-mission call and knew I would be going to Brazil a few months after
-returning.
-
-Below I include two maps to pinpoint the location in Southeastern Utah
-where the course was held. The first shows the general area relative to
-familiar large cities in the state of Utah.

-start to finish.

-We started at Keg Knoll and ended in the town of Boulder. The total
-length of the trek was a little over 250 miles.
