There is simply far too much content to do it justice by listing here, with jokes, pictures and sounds to keep the young ones amused as well as many good ideas and resources for the scout leader. In particular there is some excellent information on what the group gets up too along with some brilliant photographs. It certainly is eye opening to see what our cousins in Canada get up too, going hiking into bear country sure beats walking down to the local campsite!
