On reaching basecamp, the teams are given time to recover during which an assessment team read through the expedition logs and projects. They also examine whether the minimum distance of 200 km has been completed. Following the assessment phase, Rover Scouts deemed to have met the conditions of the award are presented with the Explorer Belt at a ceremony held at the end of the expedition. Traditionally, those who have received the belt do not wear it until after they have returned home to Ireland. In 1983 (Wales) those who received the belt wore it.
