The Bottomless Bag Revival is Karl's attempt to keep alive the original spirit, heart, and fun associated with adventure/experiential education.
Have you been hearing comments that adventure education has become just a series of "been there, done that" activities? Consider: it's not how many new activities are available, it's how well you use
the old ones.
Karl's take on adventure programming is detailed in such a way that the basic development and combining of communication, cooperation, and trust within a matrix of fun and enjoyment becomes both the
"grail" and raison d'être of this both paradoxically simple and profound approach to learning and life.
For faithful readers of Karl's various books on adventure/experiential education, "Revival" is basically the same book as The Bottomless Bag Again!?, with a new cover, new size, and some text
changes.

Funn 'n Games represents a one book compilation of the material represented in the four volumes previously entitled Funn Stuff, and as such, delivers over 300 pages of adventure games, initiatives, trust activities, miscellaneous funn, and seeds of serendipity (including 23 NEW activities not included in Funn Stuff.) I added, deleted, adjusted, rearranged, maintained and rethought the whole Funn Stuff series to offer what is now available, a highly usable games and initiative reference in one book.

A gentle reminder of the knots, rope and lore used on a challenge ropes course. The rope vocabulary and knot sequences in this book relate, as much as possible, only to ropes (challenge) course activities. The book's content is meant more as a reminder than a definitive text on the subject of knots. A bowline-on-a-bight learned on day two of a workshop often becomes a tangle of memory snipets and rabbits-in-holes by the time a participant returns home. Here's text support that beats a last minute phone call looking for help on those elusive cordage twists and turns; illustrations and photographs throughout.
