    Patrol Teams Informal

    Tripod Lashing

    Equipment: For each patrol, three 8-foot spars, one 8-foot length oflashing rope, and one 6-foot length of rope for suspension.

    Method: On signal, patrol members lash the three staves or saplings into a tripod using the tripod lashing shown in the Fieldbook. When finished, they set up the tripod, tie a bowline in one end of the short rope, and place the bowline loop over the top of the tripod. Tie a bowline in the free endhigh enough so the loop cannot touch the ground. One Scout stands on the bowline loop and holds his balance by hanging onto the line coming down from the top of the tripod.

    Scoring: The first patrol with a Scout standing in the bowline loop with the tripod supporting his weight is the winner.
