Bearpaw is our council's winter-weather training program designed to get Scouts ready for snow camping. The indoor session focuses on dressing for snow, packing for the campout, camping in snow, traveling on snow, menus and cooking, winter first aid, and driving in winter conditions.
The outdoor session is a chance for your Scouts to experience snow camping in a safe environment with other scouts from throughout the council. Think council-wide camporee in the snow! Training includes snow caving, igloo construction, fire building in the snow, emergency transport, ice rescue, winter first aid, and more. The outdoor session is held at Cisco Grove Campground and RV Park, just off Highway 80 at Soda Spring (Exit 165-Cisco Grove).
