When the group you are leading is cold, wet and hungry and it's late ... sometimes the best thing to raise spirits is a good old blazing warm fire. *
This year the Outdoor Leadership Class for the George Washington University TRAiLs leadership team included LNT trainer certification, land navigation training, emergency procedures and crisis management, as well as basic
skills... like starting a fire, in the dark, with wet material and only two matches..... and yes, it was done successfully ... more than once!*where allowed by regulations
