One of the best memories of my childhood is when I was a boy scout. We learned many things about how to survive in the wild. This good advice came in handy when a 12 year old boy named Jared got lost in the woods recently. Jared stayed calm and used his training to stay alive.
After getting lost in the woods on his way home from a lake, Jared built a crude structure to sleep in using branches and logs. He also used dirt as a blanket to keep himself warm. The strategy paid off and he was found early the next morning. Jared is not discouraged though, he plans to go camping again soon.
