The Webelos Walkabout adventure combines planning and hiking 🌲 Scouts pack the Six Essentials, review safety rules, and map their route before heading out on a two-mile walk.

They also practice first aid and Leave No Trace principles. After the hike, Scouts reflect on what went well and what they would change next time. It is a great way to build confidence and outdoor skills ⚜️

Most hikers, 81%, now use phone maps. This is much higher than using only paper maps, but it can lead to problems if the phone battery dies or the app crashes.

Truly an incredible, heroic story: Tiffany Slayton’s survival in California's Sierras. We found it well worth listening to the entire 43 mins.

And BTW, as she commented, “I had actually started my journey a while ago, attempting to bike the United States. I was very successful because I only have six states left.” https://youtu.be/6eAvrSge4z4?si=AYXtHMmZOxCpipLI
