Tilden’s Principles of Interpretation

When interpreting you should: 1. Try to relate to your audience. Consider the age, group make-up, and if they are local or not .

B)  What I need to improve I need to improve rafting up and slowing down. At some times we had a hard time stoping at the side of the bank and turning back into the current. C) What I really enjoyed I really enjoyed seeing the beautiful sand banks that reached up very high. I also enjoyed taking breaks and talking with my canoeing parteners and classmates about the rapids and the scenery. D) What I found difficult and why I found the length of the trip difficult because it got me really tired and exhausted. This made it difficult to stay positive and have the strength to paddle on. E) Would I recommend canoe excursions in the future? ...
