"There were no outlets. And there was dirt, and bugs, and... and it rains there." The Camp Out S2 Ep 7

The assignment from school is to gather leaves of the local flora. Laura and Mary announce their family will be on a camping trip and hope to find extra special leaves up in the "hills" of Minnesota. However, leave it to Harriett, Nellie and Willie (against the opinion of Mr. Oleson) to find a means of turning a short two day hiking/camping/gathering trip into a one-of-a kind adventure. With the kids busy snatching every leaf in sight (even against Mary's warning), Charles and Mr. Oleson are having a great time fishing (trying out a new Bamboo pole), and Caroline and Harriet stay close by to set up the camping sites and prepare all the meals. Unfortunately, for Harriet, parasols and Tea sets are great if you are glamping near home, but are excess baggage when hiking through the wilderness. It's like Town Party, Country Party in the great outdoors....only this time there is a river and not a pond to fall in to. Who will get the most leaves for the the school project? Why are there Snow Capped mountains on the Prairie? And which of our campers is a true Wilderness girl?
