L.O.S.T

Apple Valley, January 23, 2010

Leaders Outdoor Safety Training (LOST) is for every Scout-, Cub Scout- and Venturing-leader who wants to do the outings right, which is to say, maximum safety and maximum fun. First thing, the class takes a look at some outdoors, which was right handy in Apple Valley.

What do we hope to hear the youth say as they see the hills beckoning to them?

Maybe they should ask if they have permission before they climb...

Bell Mountain is bigger than any store!

Road closed...for several reasons.

Get a visit to those snow-covered peaks on the calendar now.

What kind of rock is that hill made of? What's it look like on the topo map?

Plenty of snowy wilderness to choose from.

What rules do we keep in mind while climbing those rocks?

After the class has had a look, we talk about why the outdoors are such an important part of Scouting.

Inside, before we get cold! To work on how to plan that gotta-do-it-again outing.

Also, how to get those awards.
