Klondike

Last month I went up to a ranch in Cascade to camp and build snow caves. This is where all the boy scouts in meridian, boise, and eagle come together to celebrate the klondike. We come to this ranch every year and build snow caves to camp in that night. Then, we wake up and go around to all these to earn golden nuggets. Later, we count all our gold and we can get prizes for our scout troop by getting the most golden nuggets. Also, at the klondike there is a knot tying contest to see if you can tie all the knots the fastest. If you are 1st, 2nd, or 3rd you get a hatchet as a prize. Finally, there is the great klondike race. Everyone gets to build a sled before hand and bring it to race as you can see in the pictures when I am building our troops sled.
