I was the advisor for a crew of seven that used the caterpillar with great
success, both uphill and downhill, this summer. You can use it with any
number of paces that is comfortable to you. We used twenty paces (or forty
steps) and cruised past many crews struggling up hill. Works great!

Subject: [Philmont]: Catapiller - small group

 

Good Afternoon.

 

I am looking for a "catapiller" technique for a small group - 7 people. I
have done it with 12 people, but how do you change the breaks for a smaller
group? Do you just take more steps after passing the last person, such as 30
steps instead of 15 steps?

 

Thanks.
