LOW ELEMENTS

Low Elements are designed to get the participants to work as a team and be responsible for the safety of others as well as for themselves. These are great interaction and communication tools.

Low Wall
To move the entire group as efficiently as possible up and over the Wall. The Wall itself is a 12 foot high obstacle that varies in width. One side is blank (the side to be climbed). The other side has a railed platform to stand on, and a means of descent.

Meuse
Each team will be tasked to build a robot together. After which they will be going through the learning session on manual controls and how to control them.

Trust Fall
To perform a controlled fall from a four foot high platform built on a pole into the arms of at least eight arranged spotters.

TP Shuffle
An entire group is placed on top of the horizontal pole. Group is divided into two and asked to face one another and trade ends without stepping off the pole, or making contact with the ground. The pole is a 30 foot utility pole supported a few inches off the ground by two or three supports.

Mohawk Walk
The “Walk” is made up of sections of taut cable between support trees; some long, some short. The group objective is to move all participants from one end of the event to the other via the taut cables.

Trolley
Challenge to traverse a distance on a set of wooden ski to collect assigned objects

Whale Watch
The entire group is placed in the platform to achieve a balanced position.

Spider’s Web
The object is to move the entire group through the web openings so that each person goes through a distinct opening without touching the web. If a participant is successful, that opening conceptually closes for the remainder of the problem. If anyone touches the web during an attempt, the person being passed through must return and try again through that same opening.

Wild Woozey
Two diverging cables that originate from the same support and are connected on the far end into two separate supports, approximately 12~14 feet apart. These taut cables are about 18 inches above the ground. The object is for two participants, each standing on a separate cable, to maintain physical contact with one another and move from the apex of the traverse to the far end without falling from the cables or losing contact.
