Divide the youth into two groups. Each group sets out from a different starting point, receiving a route sketch (as in fig. 16).

The group’s task is to reach the designated destination according to the provided sketch. This is essentially an off-road march. The marked terrain points are not visible from previous points and are located at great distances (up to 1 kilometers) from one another.

The march is conducted based on given directional angles, marked for a specific point.

One group starts from point A, the other from point B, moving along the same route toward each other to reach the opposite group’s starting point. The group that reaches the final point of its route in the shortest time wins.

Fig. 16.

Note: a) Different directional angles are calculated for each group, depending on the direction of the march; b) directional angles are determined at the center of a given terrain feature (road intersection, small bridge); c) a compass should be used.

Variations of the above game will be:
