    How High?

    Note: Play outdoors, if possible. If indoors, eliminate the measuring-by-pace test.

    Equipment: A string 50 meters (165 feet) long, sticks, pan of muddy water.

    Method: In turn, each Scout paces off what he judges to be 50 meters. (Leader checks his distance with string.) The Scout then estimates the height of some landmark (tree, flagpole, building) with the Pencil, Tree Felling, or Muddy Water Method shown in the Boy Scout Handbook.
    To save time, have several Scouts compete at the same time.

    Scoring: The Scout scores one point for his patrol if his distance estimate is within 2 meters of 50 meters; one point ifhis estimate of height is within 3 feet of being correct.
