Spent a fun weekend with the scouts, doing the usual bushcraft activities, like shelter building, preparing game, cooking etc. but this time it was a little colder, and at times a lot wetter...but not too bad..
Here's two of the boys harvesting pigeon breasts. the lad on the right was doing it for the first time, and on the left is an "old hand" showing him the ropes...
Game stew broiling away...Venison, rabbit and pigeon with potatoes and veg....went down a treat...
One of the selters
Roast rabbit
Showing them how it's done...
what's all the fuss about
Game stew scout style
In the tipi while outside hail and thunder
Myself and two other leaders spent the night in the tipi, while the scouts bivvied down in their own shelters
Great fun weekend...and keen to get out again soon.....
