My Crew

Duty Roster

What each crew member does and when

Assignments locked at the May 16 shakedown. Interactive rotation grid — who cooks which meal, who hangs the bear bag which night — comes with sign-in in P2.

Duty types

Cook team

2 scouts · rotates every meal

Boil water, rehydrate the meal, serve. Sterilize bowls in boiling water before serving. Use the hybrid HE pot + issued pot method.

Cleanup

Whoever cooked

Wash and rinse pots and personal bowls. Strain grey water through the sump kit into a sump hole. Strained food particles to the yum yum bag — out at next staffed camp.

Water

Rotates daily

Fill at every reliable source. Monitor crew hydration — call out anyone who hasn't sipped in 15–20 minutes. Carry the dirty bag and one of the four filters.

Navigation

Crew Leader + 1 scout

Route-find using sectional map + compass. Crew Leader leads; the assigned scout learns. Map lives in a hip belt or top lid pocket — not buried.

First aid

Advisor-carried · all crew aware

Lead Advisor or designate carries the crew kit at the top of pack. Everyone carries a personal kit. Standardized — we built them as a group.

Bear hang

Last duty of the day · everyone helps

Every smellable in the bear bags before crew sleeps. ¼" nylon ropes only. Two locking carabiners on the rope carrier. No food, no toothpaste, no chapstick in tents. Ever.

Rotation principle

By Trail Day 3, every scout has run every role. Cook, clean up, fill water, navigate, hang the bear bag. The crew isn't dependent on one person knowing the system.
