A GUIDED PRINT PACKET
One Place, Four Visits
Return to one permitted outdoor spot at least twice. Print a map and one visit sheet per visit, then use the summary to say what the sheets actually support.
Start with four kinds of sheet
Print 1 Choose one place, 2 Draw a place map, two copies of 3 Record one visit, and 7 Tell the place story. The other sheets deepen a question when you need them. Print a fresh visit sheet each time; do not write over the first record.
Each PDF is one page. US Letter and A4 are separate exact files. The previews below come from those PDFs. The tools are optional.

Use what you actually observed
Keep the same observation point where possible. A blank is not a zero, and not visible is different from did not check. The final page can honestly say that no clear change was seen.
Do not record a home address or exact coordinates in a packet you may share. Observe in place and follow local access rules. The digital layouts have been reviewed; physical printing and outdoor use have not been tested.
