Geocaching

As part of our orienteering lessons, we did some GEOCACHING.  Scout and Shelby took Sierra for her first time and showed her how fun it was to find treasure and make trades.  They came home with some fun toys. 

This one didn't have any toys in it, but we still found it!

Eco Academy - Orienteering

Today we learned how to use a compass.  We trekked from point A to B, in a geocache manner.  It was great fun and the kids enjoyed themselves.   We also made pacing beads before class and were able to use them to mark off how far we walked.  This will come in very handy if we have to walk great distances without a GPS.
