Competition Theme
The teams of two will be judged on your skills for basic survival. This includes hands on skills and general knowledge to get you to the winners circle!
Your goal is to make a simple basic shelter, along with a fire to keep warm in a -40 C situation. You will also be showcasing how well you make a fire by boiling 2 eggs to a hard boiled stage, as well as making a proper cup of tea. *Note: A new snare component is being introduced this year.
You will be given a round of firewood and you must process it down without an axe.
