Instructions
Set up the hammock so the Scouts know what it is supposed to look like. Then release it and stuff it back in it's stuff sack.
Scouts have the time it takes for you to put it in it's stuff sack to come up with a strategy.
Patrol leader to remain sighted. All other Scouts are blindfolded.
Patrol leader needs to direct the Scouts in order to put up the hammock. They have five minutes to complete the task.
