Synopsis

Donald is leading a scout troop consisting of his nephews on a hike in the woods. Donald isn't nearly the expert on the woods that he thinks he is, much to the amusement of the boys. In a bid for sympathy, he douses himself in catsup and fakes injury; the boys bandage him so thoroughly he can't see, and he stumbles into a pot of honey, and is soon getting all too much attention from a bear.

OllieSuave-007 Donald takes on a follow-the-leader role as he takes his scout troop - Huey, Duey and Louie - to a hike in the woods.As bad luck will have it, Donald not-so-expertise in the woods lands him in a hilarious tussle with a bear. His nephews doesn't really help much as they bandage him so thoroughly from a stumble that he can't see bear. Donald takes the brunt of the bad luck.This cartoon has its funny moments with great animation and colorful characters. But it doesn't show much teamwork between Donald and his nephews. There are better ones featuring Donald and his nephews out there.Grade C+
TheLittleSongbird While not the best Donald Duck cartoon, it is a well drawn and funny one at that. Once again, Donald is the butt of his nephews's mischievous antics, and not only that he does everything here badly! Donald is as cantankerous and as volatile as ever, and his nephews are cute and mischievous, not to mention funny. The animation is excellent here, with crisp backgrounds and nice colouring. The character features mayn't always be as great as it could have been, but oh well. The music is lively and fun, and the voice acting from Clarence Nash is stellar. The gags are funny, especially the end one, that had me in stitches.Overall, not the best but great fun at that. 9/10 Bethany Cox
Shawn Watson In this cartoon Donald is taking his nephews (no a helluva lot more well-behaved) on a camping trip in the wilderness. Donald is their leader and well...you can pretty much guess that every time he tries to show off to them that disaster will promptly follow.Be it chopping down a tree, pitching a tent or fending off wild bears, Donald does it all badly. And funny. And this is the first cartoon in which Donald actually appears cute instead of frowning and shouting all the time. It's also one of the few cartoons in which is face doesn't turn firetruck red through sheer anger.For a short made in 1938 it's brilliantly drawn and very funny.
Robert Reynolds In this short, nominated for an Oscar, Donald is the Scout leader of a troop consisting of his nephews, Huey, Dewey and Louey. As is typically the case, Donld is affable, good-natured, even-tempered and thoroughly prepared. Cartoondom's most prominent case of coronary thrombosis in waiting, its' poster child for hypertension, is in rare form. The boys are better equipped than he is for what happens on their hike. The end of the short is hilarious. This runs from time to time on The Ink and Paint Club and is well worth watching.
