Hey, Big D, any idea what the prize's are going to be?

 

[DerekH]

Something worth it. Meant to ask the other day but instead talked food for like two hours.

I'm on this. Extra points if I teach some other boys in my BSA troop the skills needed to make/sleep in a shelter in the wild?

 

[DerekH]

You young'uns are so impatient. SBK I can't answer that, although I imagine Ethan would look favorably on it, but again, that is ultimately up to him. Whatever the knife is, it will be worth it to you.

I could use any of those. Thanks for the chance. I will be camping out with the BSA on the weekend of 22/23/24; I will update after the trip.

You hooligans better make it happen. Two and a half months for a challenge is a ridiculously long amount of time to only get four entrants.

I'm working on it. Went backpacking last weekend, but I couldn't stay 24 hours in one place.
