Until the Scouts got hold if it, that is. The Forest is really the scariest thing we do. Those include fog and things that can t be seen until you encounter them. The trail that constitutes the Forest takes about 30 minutes to traverse, or perhaps faster if you re really scared. The Super Maze, created from plywood and logs, takes 15 to 20 minutes to get through.

It s built so you can crawl out underneath if you need to, Young said. New this year is the Pharaoh s Revenge, which contains 700 pieces of plywood and 25-foot pyramid full of chills and thrills. It is surrounded by the Black Forest on three sides. The advantage of all this for the Scouts is the opportunity to work cooperatively on a large project, learning life lessons that will pay off in later years. That, and they get to scare people, which is a life lesson in itself.
