+Astro_D Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 (edited) My son is working on the Surveying merit badge for boy scouts. He's having a lot of fun using the "professional" equipment and really getting to know what surveying is all about and how it's done. I think this has been one of his favorite merit badges to date. He mentioned he would not have cared to bother with it, if it wasn't for the benchmark hunting we do! The counselor for the merit badge was quite impressed with what my son knew and really surprised at the dedication to being out there, putting in the time and effort to find these marks. While I don't think my son will become a professional surveyor, I thank benchmark hunting and the knowledge found in this forum for the strong interest that it developed in him!
