And the usual stuff included:
catching the woods on fire,
rocks added to backpacks,
camp stove burned SPL as well as the pancakes,
SPL duct taped to hammock in the middle of the night,
crawling through Sasakwa's abandoned mine,
Search and Rescue Merit Badge,
used search and rescue techniques to find out who was hoarding the Oreos and banana chips,
built own shelters on the trail,
rain the first night with some tents and gear getting soaked with water
and etc.
(sometimes I wonder about the "etc." and just exactly what that entailed)
(other times I tell myself I don't want to know)
Strange as it may be, the young "Cobra" Patrol fared better than the "Dirty Dozen" patrol.
Just some of the Same ol' same ol'...
Life and times of a teenage boy in the outdoors.
(makes me wish I had been there...especially for the parts that included fire and duct tape and pancakes)
