Compass Treasure Hunts

Types of Treasure HuntsThere are many kinds of treasure hunts. They range from the simple imaginative hunts of children, who scour their neighborhoods for a "pot-of-gold" to the modern intricate hunts of adults, covering rules in automobiles. Boy Scout hunts lie between these extremes, but no matter who does the hunting, there is always a "treasure" at the end of the trail. Laying the TrailIt takes time and forethought to properly lay a trail. The Scoutmaster should lay the first sample trail himself and thereafter help Scouts to lay others. Fit Type of Hunt to HunterDon't overrate the ability of Boy Scouts to decipher hidden, clever, complicated clues. Scouts seem to have only one objective - "Keep going and go fast!" If they lose the trail they rarely back track, and they will not stop long enough to decipher a code, so make the clues obvious and the trail as nearly fool-proof as possible. Above all, be sure that something - only a piece of candy, perhaps - awaits those who reach the end of the rainbow.
