The scouts set up camp in a field. They pitch their tents, working together to raise them and hit the pegs into the ground. The scouts then line up for an inspection which is carried out by their Scoutmaster. After the inspection, they are given the chance to have refreshments. Along with their leader, the boys look over a map and plan out a hiking route.

The group takes a trip to the famous Yorkshire landmark. An extensive sequence shows them climbing together. They then return to the camp and lay out in the sunshine before they have some food. Finally the boys leave camp on a back of a truck.
