Taking photos, note taking and other subjects. Great idea. You might mention in that page that it's always a good idea to carry a bottle of water. Often wetting down stones brings out details. I always carry both 35mm and my digital camera. And use a fine grain film (ASA 64, 100 etc...NOT 400 or "multi-purpose" film) and set your digital camer for best image quality. You'll have less pictures on your card, but you'll be pleased with the better dpi results. Sometimes one camera will record a better image than the other. Get as close as possible! Fill up the frame.
