OK, now I’m just mad. This kid willfully walked away from his troop in the wilderness to try to hitchhike home. He wasn’t abducted by survivalists or grabbed by Bigfoot. He left on purpose. That’s something I, as a person who used to take Scouts into the woods and on camping trips, just can’t forgive. For three days I prayed this kid was going to be OK, and I guess those prayers were answered. After his parents get all the hugging out of the way they should bring out the hickory stick for the hell this kid put everyone through for three days, especially the Scoutmaster who was responsible for the kids on the trip.
