What happens

Are You Tougher Than a Boy Scout? is an American reality television series on the National Geographic Channel that debuted on March 4, 2013. It features Scouting-themed competitions between adults and members of the Boy Scouts of America. The show is hosted by Charles Ingram, a former Army Ranger. The producers of the show had to find a location to host the show for activities such as Whitewater rafting, rappelling, wilderness navigation and canoe jousting (admittedly a new addition to the Boy Scout skill set). Camp Whitsett, which rests in the heights of the Sequoia National Monument near Lake Ida and the mighty Kern River, was chosen for its traditional Mountain Camp ambiance as well as the rugged terrain that could challenge even the most practiced outdoorsman.
