The idea was that we could use this as a quiz that would get our Scouts used to looking in their Scout Handbooks. As such we should use the book that they are most lightly to have on hand. The most up to date edition.

Edward Cave wrote The Boy Scout's Hike Book. It was published in 1920.

If I remember right I think he also wrote another book on hiking with his brother as the co-author, his name was Neil or Nigel?

Page 213 of the current handbook, has a hiking tip form Edward Cave.

maybe this thread needs a rule that says only people that have a handbook, preferably the latest one, and have opened it and read it can ask questions.

Or maybe a disclaimer that says data maybe corrupted.
