Route
| According to the chief scout challenge specifications we had
to plan and carry out an expedition in unfamiliar country over 3 days including at least 2
nights out of doors, along a route more than 24 km. To do this successfully we had to plan
an accurate route which crossed or met rivers, streams or tributaries along the way. After
the 2 meetings on the chief scout challenge we came up with a route which stretched 65.5
km and included 1 night in a camping barn and 2 nights out doors at different campsites. |
