The challenge is simple!    Survive for thirty-six hours with nothing but the clothes you are wearing, a chicken, a bag of flours, a tin can and a small supply of water.   What's more, you are dumped in the middle of nowhere, miles from the nearest village.   You must build a shelter to sleep in and survive the hardest task - the hours passing slowly with nothing to do!

This is the Survival Skills badge, and over two weekends in June two groups of Adderbury Scouts proved they've got what it takes.
