Can you tell me a little more about how that worked? Could they just leave very simple messages, or did they have some kind of elaborate code to it? Basically, I'm perplexed as to how they could formulate messages out of knots, rather than relying on letters or pictures. Great video of your hike too, but tell your dad that he could add more narration in future videos. It's great to have you guys telling us what we're looking at!
