This week we were up at Raywell to do some cooking on alter fires. This went towards the new Backwoods Cooking Activity Badge.

Despite the rain, we managed to get 2 fires going using a flint stick. Whilst they died down ready to cook on, the Cubs went in search of green sticks to hold their sausages over the fire with. The sticks must be green because the moisture in them means they won’t catch fire.

We also stuffed bananas with chocolate and put them in the embers, they tasted yum!
