B.C. Orienteering

You’re taken by the woods even though you’re aware
Of the slippery cliffs and the big black bears
And the salal snares, taller than yourself
Ferns growing as thick as the trees, yeah
You’re looking for a flag at the top of the hill
Its a race against the light
One false step could mean staying the night, yeah
That’s why you should never travel alone
No, you should never
You should never travel alone
And you know that
'Cause just one false step and you might not make it home
And so you watch for the loose rocks under your feet
Stepping on wet stones, crossing over creeks
Climbing up cliffs, over dead trees
You watch your step, you get your footing right, yeah
And a broken compass could mean staying the night, yeah
And that’s why you should always know where you’re going
And even if you’ve got a map, you should always know where you’re going
And you know that even if you’ve got a map
You might not make it home
When you take your time just to breathe the air
And appreciate having never met a bear
And you capture the flag at the top of the hill
With daylight to spare
Orienteering comes naturally
You read the map right
One wrong turn could mean staying the night
And though you carry your phone
You should never
You should never travel alone
And you know that
Because one false step and you might not make it home
And you know that
'Cause even if you got a map and you know where you’re going
You’re still a long way from your home
And even if you got a map you should never travel alone
And you know that
But you’re not dead yet and you might just make it home
And you know that
But you’re not dead yet and you might just make it home
