CubsRgr8 10 Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 OK, I'll bite. What are the ten essentials? Link to post Share on other sites
ASM7 10 Posted February 25, 2003 Share Posted February 25, 2003 The ten essentials are listed in the Boy Scout Handbook in the hiking section pgs 207-210 and are the essentials for any outing. Our boys are required to carry these items on all trips. These are especially recommended for day hikes, because short trips are when most emegencies arise. When taking longer trips, you would more than likely have these items anyway. The items are pocketknife, first aid kit, extra clothing, rain gear, water bottle, flashlight, trail food, matches and firestarters, sun protection, map and compass. For raingear, our boys use the military poncho because they can make a shelter out of them. We also include 50 ft of parachute chord. Two boys can snap the ponchos together to form a nice shelter from the weather. Make sure they are prepared. Link to post Share on other sites
