Adventure Smart

Before you go on an adventure, tell someone your plans and leave a date to raise the alarm if you haven't returned. Use the New Zealand Outdoors Intentions process.  It's endorsed by New Zealand's search and rescue agencies and provides simple options to tell someone you trust the details about your trip, and make your adventures safe ones.
