Start playing free

  1. Trails during daylight only
  2. Highway and cross-country, day and night ✔
  3. Camp roads after dark only

Why: Safe-hiking knowledge must handle more than one kind of trip. Tenderfoot 5c includes highway and cross-country travel in both daylight and darkness.

Huh, didn't know that: The requirement asks Scouts to explain both safe and responsible hiking rules.

The dad joke
Why did the trail carry a flashlight? It wanted a bright path forward.
