This thread is a little too much doom and gloom sky is falling for my taste. You learn things like bringing a map, phone charger, etc. through experience (or someone with experience telling you to bring that stuff). This sounds like a typically goofy inexperienced kid. Thankfully you were there to help her out.
The part I really don't like is a 19 year old girl driving alone hours from home.
I'd love it if the U.S. would institute mandatory military service for 18 year olds, even just 12 months.
