Scoutmaster's Minute
Inspired by the movie "Lincoln," and my time in the backcountry...without a map.
Part of the reason Baden-Powell chose the Fluer-de-lis as a symbol for Scouting was its reference to the compass. A compass, it'll point you North from where you're standing (provided you’re using it correctly), but it's got no advice about the terrain. Are there swamps? Water to cross? Access to water in the dessert? How about a canyon? Or anything else you might encounter along the way. It can still be a VERY useful tool in helping you get to your destination.
If in pursuit of your destination, you plunge ahead, without paying attention to your environment and potential obstacles, and achieve nothing more than to sink in a swamp or are swept away in too deep water with too strong a current ... Then what's the use of knowing North?
