Fifth Grade Camp Out

" This was a group activity that involved teamwork and you had to trust the person in front of you to guide you around obstacles" -- Jacob
 That is called Alaskan Skiing.  You have to use ropes to lift one side and put it forward and then do the other board.  We learned to have teamwork.
 This was when you had to get the rope first without going across a line.  We used a branch to reach it.
 We had to swing on the rope over to a board without touching the ground, if you did, then everyone that was on the board had to go back.
This is a balancing act. We had to balance the board then one person from one side and a person from the other had to switch places without losing balance.

Jacob liked the entire thing.  They spent their time at the NWC field camp up in Sunlight basin.  Spike got to go and be a chaperone which is why we got some good pictures to share.
