UTE 1 was held this year in the 22-23.2 Pedersore in Ostrobothnia. The entire patrol Muskrat, ie Mark, Albert, Oscar, Christopher and I attended the course. On Saturday morning at. 7:06 started the train from Helsinki to Bennäs. When we arrived, tired but excited, we were received by two excited scouts from Pedersore. With them, we first travel to their kårlokal to wait for the other participants also began to appear. We were about 15 students plus leaders. All except we patrol Muskrat was from Ostrobothnia, including Narpes and Vaasa. Then we come to the right place, we presented ourselves first, and was then divided into groups tree fu tom of 3 or 4 people. Within these groups, we would cook. We started by building a tripod tree fu tom and manufacture a cradle to hang the pan on. Then we made a fire, which did not go as fast as we need to chop enough different size wood and light the fire with firestarter. Finally, after struggling for a long while, we got it to burn. On the menu was macaroni with minced meat.
The mittens to dry, it was very wet in the woods. After lunch, we had different work which we learned, among other things how to keep warm and the material of the clothes, tree fu tom it pays to have when it's cold. We also learned about what it pays to cook the food on, depending on the temperature. In the evening, we set up tents that we would sleep in. The tents resembled little teepee and in the middle of the tent, we had a fire. At night we had kipinäturer that was a little longer than an hour.
We had water in a pot over the fire all night so that we would have hot water in the morning. Before we went to bed we grilled potatoes, sausage and chokobanan on fire inside the tent and talked to each other. We had great fun, and those who were from Narpes learned little finland Kingdom. We laughed a lot because it sounded so weird: D They learned among other things that the potato is called piäru, which we thought tree fu tom was very funny. It was the wake-up half past seven the next morning. Morning meal, which consisted of bread and instant oatmeal, we ate in the tent. A little later, we took down the tent and started to pack up our things.
The last exercise session of the course was about orientation. We learned to appreciate how far we have gone and we are oriented in about an hour with the help of a compass. When we were finished with the orientation, we started to cook lunch, which was ground beef soup. When everything was ready and we got away clean diploma course and then started walking towards the parking lot again. Tired and smell of smoke spirit then we sat on the train for about 4 hours. We had a really fun and educational weekend, I think anyway I! A big thanks to all who attended! Emilia
