o good quiz.go wood badge sr 889, fly high brother - owls.

Slopes greater than 70 degrees are less prone to avalanche because they are so steep, the snow that falls on them slides down naturally as it falls, preventing the buildup of enough snow to avalanche in the first place.

Number 17----I've found over the years that yes, it's 2 mph when you first start out, but by the end of a long trek (a.k.a. philmont) you will be pretty close to 3. Also, you can never go faster than your scoutmaster, so is that answer correct? YES!

Not sure on #4. Physics seems to indicate that a 70 degree slope would be more prone to avalanches than a 45 or a 60, not to mention greater than 70 degrees. Can anyone explain the 30-40 or 40-60 degree answer?

How can you not bring enough water for an overnight. You only need 8 cups a day. If you bring one gallon you'll have more than enough.

I want to know why the scout in the photo with the article has such a lame look on his face. He looks completely lost. It certainly does not help the Boy Scouts recruit new members - many of which will grow up to be backpacker readers because of the love of the outdoors the received from scouting.

I would have to disagree with your correct answer to #21. I can guarantee you filtered water, especially after boiling, is safer and more pure than the water that most municipalities have. Assuming that you take good care of your filter. Sipping water and rationing it is a very good way to get yourself dehydrated.

"On #21, how can you possibly bring enough water from home on even an overnight trip? Why don't they teach something practical? Maybe they need to teach boyscouts not to needlessly fire semi-automatic weapons in wilderness areas.

Actually, they do teach them to not needlessly fire ANY weapon in an unsafe manner. But what does that have to do with the quiz?

"On #21, how can you possibly bring enough water from home on even an overnight trip? Why don't they teach something practical? Maybe they need to teach boyscouts not to needlessly fire semi-automatic weapons in wilderness areas. "

Maybe you could hold their targets just to make sure they are firing in the right direction. Idiotic comments deserve an idiotic response.

If you want to know more about Lord Baden Powell read "Two Lives of a Hero". One life as a soldier and one as the original Scout leader.

Yep, it's supposed to be England where Scouts started, not Scotland. Brownsea Island, the first scouting experimental campout, is located off the southern coast of Britain.

By the way, Gilwell Field is inside Gilwell Park, the land donated to the Scouts and where Baden-Powell started the Wood Badge course. That's located in London: Gilwell Park, Epping Forest, London E4, UK

Woodbadge was started in Scotland where land was donated to BSA. McClaren (sp) donated the land to Boy Scouts and then was named Gillwell Park. But Baden Powell was from England and served in South Africa. This is where the wooden beads came from that all wood badgers are required to wear. But I do believe you are right Boy Scouts was founded in England after Baden returned home from Africa.

Alex is correct!

Alex is right Bladen-Powell founded Scouting in Britian.
