BasicsShipwrecked is the pirate-themed version of the drop off hike. Campers are grouped into teams and taken to various locations by a circuitous route while blindfolded. They are then expected to find their way back to camp.
In this version, the teams are pirates who have crashed on Brownsea Island and must make their way to civilization.
Why is this something we want to do?Teams are usually chosen to make things fun (at least for the organizers).
Variations:The players could be made to find something on their way or to carry something back.
One player could be designated as injured and the others would have to bring him back.
The entire group could be under a ban of silence.
