| This Activity is meant for Boy Scouts. Decide for yourself if it is appropriate for your younger scouts or not. | |
| Required: | For each patrol: A hammer 5 or 6 logs. 5 or 6 stakes. 5 or 6 30foot ropes. A tree with a sturdy limb from which to hang logs. |
| Preparation: | Cut the logs so they are 4 to 6 feet long and weigh from 10 to 40 pounds. |
| Notes: | You may let each patrol figure out their own way to solve the challenge. Or, you may tell them to hang the logs from the tree limb using the rope and stakes. (This would be a timber hitch on the log, rope over the limb, and two half-hitches on the stake ) |
| Objective: Lift all the logs off the ground as fast as possible. Rules:
