1st Dural Cub Scouts set out on our hike at Eric Mobbs Reserve Castle Hill. It was a cloudy 21 degrees as we hiked through the bush with our daypacks.
We identified native plants and walked through creeks as we studied our maps. We stopped and had a break in a huge cave. We also collected cockatoo feathers. We finished our hike at a cool and windy 14 degrees! It was tiring but lots and lots of fun.
My favourite thing about Cubs is having new adventures with my friends. I like learning new things such as how to light a campfire, roasting marshmallows on a stick, learning sign language and the different types of knots and doing compass work. I look forward to going to Cubs every week.
