Boney Island



Boney Island is an island located across Lake Wawanakwa from Camp Wawanakwa. One of the island's most notable features is a massive cliff in the shape of a human skull. It is home of the fictional woolly beavers and Stymphalian Canadian Geese. This island is known to hold species extinct in other parts of the world, due to its remoteness. The fact that it is considered creepy and supposedly haunted also ensures that nobody goes there to disturb these creatures. It was first introduced as a key element in the canoe challenge in Up the Creek.

According to Chris, if you take anything from the island, "you would be cursed forever." However, Beth did not hear this warning because she was using the bathroom at the time he said it and took a tiki idol from the island that she found in a bush. This caused a supposed curse on the Screaming Gophers with a losing streak that spanned over the course of three episodes. Ultimately, her choice to take something off the island influenced her team's decision to make Beth the next target of her team. When she was finally eliminated, the curse seemed to disappear and the team's winning streak continued. After finding out about the curse and before being eliminated, Beth promised to return the tiki idol to Boney Island.

In Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon, it is revealed that Beth did not return the idol as she previously said she would, but instead broke it into three pieces and flushed it into the septic tank. The final six contestants are tasked to collect the idol and toss the pieces into the Cave of Treacherous Terror. When the contestants reach the cave on the island, all of the campers react in different ways. In the cave, Owen is scared away by a spider and drags Heather away with him. Leshawna and Duncan are chased off by a pack of woolly beavers that show up in the cave. Geoff and Gwen end up tossing the doll into the cave, resulting in their win for that part of the challenge.

Boney Island makes its first appearance since Trial by Tri-Armed Triathlon in Runaway Model, where the ten new contestants (one of them as an intern) have to save Lindsay from Sasquatchanakwa. During this episode, it is also revealed that Chris is turning the island into his own private resort, which explains the scaffolding that Sasquatchanakwa and Lindsay are on top of.
