    I don’t understand how they can have one person always with hand on rope when there looks like large gaps in sample maze, please advise, thanx, Tim Jordan

      Thanks for your question Tim. It might be a matter of scale in the sample map, but the gaps between the different lengths of rope should always be less than the stretched out length of the blind participants with hands on shoulders. Remember, only one person (minimum) needs to have a hand on the rope (often the last person) – all others will be holding shoulders of the person in front of them, while the front person is searching blind for another rope entry point. Let me know if this still does not make sense 🙂

    I did this with a group of 12-15 year olds inside a large, open room using chairs instead of trees. We had two groups going at the same time. They switched up leaders every so often. They went through it twice. They first time blind. The second time the leader could see. The discussion after was great. We talked about vision in terms of life and goals, leadership, mentoring, obstacles, etc.

      Great adaptation for the indoors Tara, well done. I also like what you did to sequence the challenge.
