Glos scouts run a survival skills badge weekend every year, we also run a bushcraft course and an advanced survival course alongside it.
this year i had a couple of scouts who produced one of the tidiest coolest camps ever. (yes i have already spoken to the parents about putting their photos up on t'internet) so i thought i'd share a few piccys.
one view of the camp with the builders.
the kitchen table. note the head of the besom broom sticking up.
details of construction. note the bit of biodegradeable twine used to prevent the split migrating. so much less trouble than hunting high and low to find just the right forked branch, an elegantly simple solution.
the broom
the bin
the boot drying rack
the fire and, isn't that just the most perfect pot hanger stick you ever saw!
another view of the camp and the back of the reflector.
again, elegantly simple construction.
looking from this angle you can really see the difference between the cleanly swept floor in camp and the normal woodland floor. the green tshirt is hanging on the otherwise invisible clothes line.
