Hiking
Mr.
Bill Dobson
|
| 1. |
Explain the rules of safe hiking, both on the highway and
cross-country, during the day and at night. Explain what to do if you are
lost. |
| 2. |
 | Demonstrate how a compass works and how to orient a map. Explain
what map symbols mean.
| Using a compass and map together, take a five-mile hike (or 10 miles
by bike) approved by your adult leader and your parent or guardian.
 | If you use a wheelchair or crutches, or if it is difficult for
you to get around, you may substitute "trip" for
"hike" in this requirement. |
|
|
|
| 3. |
Demonstrate how to find directions during the day and at
night without using a compass. |
| 4. |
Using a compass, complete an orienteering course that covers
at least one mile and requires measuring the height and/or width of
designated items (tree, tower, canyon, ditch, etc.). |
