Geocache Description:

FIRST AID - The Eagle Scout Series

This is one of the required merit badges that a scout needs to earn.

The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

I hope you like hiking. You will be doing a lot of that during this series of caches as you work your way toward finding the Eagle Scout Cache.

First Aid--and you might need to know it by the time you find this cache. I was pretty sure there was a trail, but it was night time, so it probably isn't the easiest to get to. I remember walking through a spider web with most of it stuck on my face. Next time, I'll go in the daylight.

First Aid is one of the best things taught to scouts. I have read many stories of scouts helping and even saving the lives of people because they new the basics of first aid.

To find this cache, find the answers to these questions and then build the coordinates N 39 58.ABC W 111 41.XYZ

Review the requirements for this merit badge and use the requirement number for the answers.

A = Which requirement has you describe the symptoms, proper first aid procedures, and possible prevention measures for frostbite?

B = Which requirement has you diagnose the need for amputation?

C = Which requirement has you teach another Scout a first aid skill PLUS ONE?

X = Which requirement has you learning about broken bones?

Y = Which requirement has you demonstrate how to move an injured person MINUS which requirement has you satisfy your counselor that you have current knowledge of all first aid requirements for Tenderfoot Rank, Second Class Rank, and First Class Rank?

Z = Which requirement has you explain when a bee sting could be life threatening and what action should be taken for prevention and for first aid PLUS Which requirement has you prepare a first aid kit for your home ?
