Field notes
The mock issue is organized into five numbered pages, with linked sections for expeditions, the team, letters, and classifieds. Each trip pairs practical-looking details—location, duration, and price—with a joke that undercuts the premise, such as Dale staying behind a tree for the whole hike. The form asks visitors to agree to be watched from the treeline, then clarifies that it does nothing.
