In 2001 the Summer Camp was held at the Scout Campsite at Phasels Wood in Hertfordshire. Pictures used on this page have been provided by David Ferrington.
Hopefully some of your memories will be captured in the photos.
One of the activities undertaken was climbing. Simon was at the bottom of the wall holding onto the ropes.
Sometimes there is nowhere to put your feet as David found out.
The climbing wall may be man-made but there are still narrow gaps to squeeze through. We told him not to look down but, as ever, he did his own thing. Still, coming down is the easy bit. When the climbing is over you can just hang around.
On the brick surface the handholds are clear to see. However, the more natural looking rocky wall is a different kettle of fish. David and Nathaniel try different methods of ascending.
After all that climbing it was time to cool off. In this very well timed photo we catch David as he starts his Eskimo Roll. The camera’s weren’t there for Nathaniel who looks rather damp in this picture.
Nathaniel and David are part of the Berkshire Contingent for Jamboree 2003 in Thailand
