Boy Scout Oath or Promise

On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

Wilderness Survival (Fire Starting)



Preparation is everything.
 Making the nest for the fire.

 A nice nest for flint and steal.

 Learning the ropes.

 The Bow and Drill not an easy thing to do.


 Even the Young Women gave it a try.

We had a great time learning how to make fire with flint and steal and a bow and drill.   We learned how to make char cloth and cooked some food on rocks.   Next step taking our skills to the wild.
