Andrea’s Reviews > Wilderness First Responder: How to Recognize, Treat, and Prevent Emergencies in the Backcountry > Status Update

Apr 3 It's good to be done, but I enjoyed the ride. I can't believe how long it took me to read. So much info packed in. Only 270 pgs of text, the rest was glossary and stuff.

Apr 2 I'm enjoying the latest issues. I've learned so much about things I deal with myself in everyday life, so it's not just for wilderness expeditions but can be applied to life in general. Jazzed that I now know how to remove a fish hook--something I've wondered about for years! :)

Apr 1 I'm over the hump, and it feels so good!
Good day of reading and the topics are more tolerable because they require less on the rescuer.

Mar 31 Barely read today, ugh. It's picking up as the injuries are less severe. Can't wait to get past the spiders and other dangerous animals tho.

Mar 30 I really charged ahead today. I'm pretty satisfied with how much I read, but I'm ready to get to minor wounds. Most of this stuff is scary!

Mar 28 Reminds me of being in college where I'd dutifully read a book with my full attention but no matter how many times I read it I have no hope to retain it. Actually unsteady by what I was reading. Def takes a diff person than me. Goes way into detail. I applaud anyone who can do this.

Mar 27 Ugh, this is a textbook. Long, long pages and I can't foresee a time when I won't be reading this...
