Some of the older scouts spent the weekend learning survival techniques and camping with minimal gear.
Highlights

- Had some great cake cooked in orange peels and steak cooked directly on the coals
- We created shelters with rope and tarps (no tents)
- The first night the scouts chose a location close to a vernal pool, the mosquitoes thought that was a very good idea.
