On Thursday the Cubs went on a night hike, they needed hiking boots/stout shoes and a torch, and they were lucky with weather!

This would have gained them their 1st hike away badge, or add another one to go towards 5 Hikes away or even 10, depending how many they have done so far.

Night hikes are a great opportunity for the Cubs to put into practice some of the things they learnt. It is also a chance for a bit of an adventure: seeing some of the animals that are out at night or recovering both your wellington-boots from a patch of mud. I think they also quite enjoyed the hot drink at the end – they certainly earned it.
