Which category includes 'Rural travel, snow, night'?

Rural travel, snow, and night fall under Special Areas O&M Skills because they involve navigating outdoor, nonstandard environments with varying terrain, lighting, and conditions. This category covers traveling in settings outside the home or familiar neighborhood—like rural roads, snow-covered surfaces, and low-visibility or nighttime situations—where the traveler must adapt techniques and strategies for safety and orientation. In contrast, Residential O&M Skills focus on familiar, home and neighborhood travel; Indoor Cane Skills target navigating indoors; and Public Transportation Skills cover using buses, trains, and other transit. So the best fit for rural travel, snow, and night is Special Areas O&M Skills.
