Description On route to New Zealand to see where Lord of the Rings was filmed, the plane crashes and drifts somewhere in the South Pacific. Crash survivors must devise shelter, find fresh water, and figure out how to load a canoe without tipping it (all in our room, of course). We will use math and the engineering process to solve our problems and return safely to civilization!
