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. - -{width="6.958333333333333in" -height="6.958333333333333in" alt=""} - -The map below shows a more detailed zoom-in of the route we took from -start to finish. - -{width="7.083333333333333in" -height="5.087740594925634in" alt=""} - -We started at Keg Knoll and ended in the town of Boulder.
