Someone in the troop said it doesn't say carry the pack for 15 miles. They said in the supplemental documentation that we shouldn't overread the requirements, and GTA says we aren't allowed to create requirements via parsing. I'm just not sure what is right and if that should be counted as a 15-mile backpacking trip if more than 1/3 of the time you don't have a backpack on. -

My initial take is you could count the 8.5 backpacking miles, but the 6.5 may be considered hiking, but not backpacking. There is a definite difference between the two. Also, consider the intent of the merit badges. As much as some may overlap, there is a benefit to a separate mindset. I applaud you and the scouts for the entire program and outing. -

Hi: I am looking to expand my Scouting collection and reference library to include "Wood Badge Instructors Guide to Practical Training" from either a) the "first" era (1948-68) or b) the "second" era (1968-2002). Does anyone know or have? Thanks! -

The Troop is going backpacking this weekend. They will trek 1.2 miles to the first campsite, 6.3 miles to the second campsite, then a mile back to the car to drop off backpacks then hike to some points of interest to finish a total of almost 15 miles. Could this trip be counted for the Backpacking MB? They plan to have backpacks with all their gear on for ~8.5 miles and just hiking no packs for the last ~6.5.
