Outdoorsmen have a conscience. We realize there are millions of children in America today, many of them who truly would like to go on a guided, educational nature hike. Most outdoorsmen realize this. Kids aren't like adults.
Kids expect answers.
Unfortunately, outdoorsmen don't have the answers. Outdoorsmen don't know as much as they pretend to know, which is why adults are the best people to take on a guided nature hike. Children aren't so easy. They want truth, which happens to be my specialty. I should note I have absolutely no trouble leading a guided nature hike with anyone, no matter what age.
