Paws on the Path with BSA modifications
My son did all the requirements from the handbook BUT
BSA has issued a 2017 modification to the Wolf Scout handbook
to make it easier. So to make life easier on your scout, thats what I will post.
Paws on the Path
Complete requirements 1–5. Requirements 6 and 7 are optional.
( In the handbook you have to do 8 requirements vs these 6, even though #2 combines req 2 and 3 together))
Requirement
1. Show you are prepared to hike safely in any outdoor setting by putting
together the Cub Scout Six Essentials to take along on your hike.
(Req 1 in handbook)
(I wrote a whole post on this that you can view here. )
2. Tell what the buddy system is and why we always use it in Cub Scouting. Describe
what you should do if you get separated from your group while hiking.
( Req 2 and 3 from book)
3. Choose the appropriate clothing to wear on your hike based on the expected weather.
( Req 4 from book)
4. Before hiking, recite the Outdoor Code and the Leave No Trace Principles for Kids
with your leader. (This may be combined with requirement 3 of the Call of the Wild
adventure.) After hiking, discuss how you showed respect for wildlife.
(Req 5 from book)
5. Go on a 1-mile hike with your den or family. Find two interesting things that you’ve
never seen before and discuss with your den or family.
( Req 6 in handbook)
Now after you did 1-5, choose one more from below to do.
6. Name two birds, two insects, and/or two other animals that live in your area. Explain
how you identified them.
( Req 7 in book)
7. Draw a map of an area near where you live using common map symbols. Show which
direction is north on your map.
( Req 8 in book)
