Rainforest Evacuation
RAINFOREST EVACUATION
This exciting new theme sees our Survivors parachuting into the Australian Rainforest after their aircraft suffers an extremely rare, DOUBLE engine failure. Luckily all escape unscathed, but for our survivors, this leap of faith is only the beginning.
Over the course of the week, your survivors and their camp mates will endeavour to develop and master the skills needed not only to survive but to thrive in the Australian Rainforest. They will have access only to the limited equipment they were able to salvage from the wreckage and will therefore have to be highly resourceful when taking on the many challenges the rainforest throws their way.
What will they be doing?
Our Rainforest Evacuation theme will feature 4 different activities each day, where survivors will discover how to build shelter and raise their beds up off the rainforest floor to stay out of reach of scorpions and other creepy crawlies. They will grasp how to forage for food, purify water and even cook for themselves! It’s no secret that Australian rainforests come with their own predators, so over the course of the week our survivors will not only understand how to defend themselves, but also how to track and trap their own prey.
