 The assumption that there is water and bathrooms available at the campground.

and fishing.

Project Constraints
The three constraints of the project are campground restrictions, weather, and costs.
Unfortunately, weather is not within my control to change, and it can impact the quality,
delivery, and overall project success. Finances are in limited supply and additional costs can
impact overall project success. Campground restrictions can impact the experiences. For
instance, a campfire restriction can impact cooking and meal preparation. This may create
additional costs.
