Looking for a new game to play on your next camping trip? Try Hunker Down—a classic among whitewater rafters, but honestly, it’s just plain fun anywhere. All you need is a rope (a throw rope works best, but any long rope will do) and something to balance on. In the video, we used weights, but logs, rocks, or even a cooler about a foot off the ground works perfectly. Here’s how it goes: two people stand on their platforms with the rope between them. Someone counts down, and then it’s a tug-of-war battle to pull as much rope as you can from the other person while trying not to fall off. The first person to step or tumble off loses. Matches can be quick or last a full minute of laughing, pulling, and strategizing. Quick tip: wear gloves. Your hands will thank you. It’s simple, competitive, and a guaranteed way to get everyone laughing on your next trip. Give it a try—you might get hooked! #laketahoe #wildernesseducation #california #weol #wilderness #mountains #ltcc #whitewaterrafting #rafting #campinggames #camping #games #outdoors
