The 1998 Fremont District Freezeree was held at the Three Creeks Snow Park, just outside Sisters.

Some Troop 21 Scouts, having bartered bartered their hard won event tickets for matches, tinder, foil, and firewood, attempt to be the first to build a fire hot enough to pop some corn. Scouts include Taylor Bushnell, Roger Wykes, Eric Fredstrom, Joe Morrison, and Eric Harvey. (If you are in this picture and not listed, let the Troop 21 webmaster know!) |
| In the Hot Isotope competition, the
scouts have to work together as a team to transport a can of water over to snuff a candle. Scouts include Bend Lewis, Scott Laird, Alex Spreier, Mike Davis, Jared Whitney, and Spencer Ardt. (If you are in this picture and not listed, let the Troop 21 webmaster know!) |

Judges Stu Laird and Ray Spreier show no mercy as scouts race to tie a square knot, two half hitches, sheetbend, taut line hitch, timber hitch, bowline, figure eight, and a clove hitch. Here Brendan Bradford demonstrates his knot tying skill. |
| Joe Morrison and Eric Fredstrom thread their way through a narrow obstacle course in the forest while carrying a twelve foot pole. |

 |
In the Snow Chair competition, the
patrols have five minutes to build the highest chair AND put a scout on top. The highest structure wins. |
| In the Woodcutting Relay, each scout
in the patrol has to saw through a log. Here, Ben Lewis and Scott Laird provide "ballast". |

 |
Everyone pitches in to break camp just as a new snowstorm moves in. At least the weather waited until the Freezeree was over this year! |
