Camping Adventures: Hot Springs Campout
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2014/11/hot-springs-campout.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Monday, November 24, 2014. On the hike back down we realized that one of our boys had done everything for his hiking merit badge except for one 10 mile hike (he'd already done a 20 mile in one day hike, and four 10 mile in one day hikes), so we asked if he would like to hike back to camp and he did! So he and a couple of us leaders hiked down to the campground and finished his 10 miles! Living off the land.

Camping Adventures: Snow Cave Camping
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2011/02/snow-cave-camping.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Thursday, February 24, 2011. Ah, the infamous snow cave campout. You know the one. It's the one you did as a kid where you froze your tail end off trying to warm up around a fire after getting soaked digging the cave, then retiring to the cave for bed and not believing how you could possibly stay warm in a cave made out of ICE! Dug down to ground, now starting to dig out the cave. Entrance to a snow cave.

Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Tuesday, May 12, 2015. A coworker told me that her husband makes his own hunting knives and said I could make one with him! He told me where to go to order the knife blank and once it came in we got together to make it!

Camping Adventures: February 2015
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Friday, February 6, 2015. We decided to do the Varsity Biathlon Camporee this year for our winter campout at Fort Buenaventura Park in Ogden Utah. Unfortunately we only had two boys that were able to come, so, since it was in town, we decided to give the other boys something to be jealous of. We went to the camp and set up our site, then drove to The Pie Pizzaria to have pizza. Map of the Fort. Though I h...

Camping Adventures: Challenging Boys helps them become Men
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/p/activities-that-challenge-boys-will.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Challenging Boys helps them become Men. I know lots of people don't see the need to go on trips that challenge boys. As someone I know says,. I'm not totally convinced that young men need to go rapelling in order to become MEN (you could replace rapelling with snow caving, canyoneering, backpacking, etc.)". When what we need are MEN who are willing and eager to step up to the plate and take on whatever ch...

Camping Adventures: March 2014
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Monday, March 3, 2014. Rockport Reservoir Yurt Campout. Ok, so I can hardly call it a "campout" if we slept in Yurts, but there wasn't hardly any snow so we couldn't do our regular Snow Cave Campout this year. I don't count the night as a camping night either if they're sleeping in a Yurt. But it was a fun outing! We went through 6 packs of refrigerator biscuits! Posted by Jason Wendel. Living off the land.

Camping Adventures: Canyoneering
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2011/03/canyoneering.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Friday, March 4, 2011. Especially if you're in slot canyons that require rappelling gear and wading or swimming in water! Canyoneering in beautiful red rock country. Most canyons have anchors bolted to the wall. Test them before trusting them, but don't add more bolts. Use natural anchors if there isn't a trustworthy bolt in place. Doesn't this look fun? Be aware of the weather. Flash floods can happe...

Camping Adventures: Backpacking Overnighter
http://campingwithscouts.blogspot.com/2011/03/backpacking-overnighter.html
Just a spot to write about some of my scouting camping adventures along with some family adventures. Monday, March 14, 2011. Imagine your scouts carrying everything they needed for the night in a backpack and hiking 5 miles up a trail. You'll find that some things they might think are important in the "city" aren't as important in the mountains. Click on a link below for more information on each:. Posted by Scout Camper.
