Scout Troop 181 had a very successful snow cave campout/campin. We arrived on site at 5pm and by 5:15 young men and leaders alike were digging, chipping, and hauling snow. We learned some lessons about snow caves:- You get very wet when you dig snow caves, especially if you don't wear snow pants.
- Pasta tastes great after 2 1/2 hours of digging.
- Scouts like fire, especially if you don't wear snow pants.
- With team work you can create a really cool snow cave (see video)
Clearly, a great activity and a lot fun to dig, sleep, play games, eat. Thanks to our great host!
