"Look out below! There's a log on the loose, and it's heading straight for you! Which beaver will be lucky enough to steer clear of the log and reach the dam first? Join the Eager Beaver Squad: Blueberry Bill, Yahoo Yellow, Gang Way Green, and Redhead Red, and see who will outrun the runaway log." The objective of Runaway Log is to be the first beaver to travel upstream and reach the dam first. The game is a roll and move with each player rolling two dice: a 1-6 die and one with a log graphic. You move the number of spaces indicated, and if a log comes up, you must pull the lever to loose the log down the board. It is held up above the playing pieces and has random magnets that may attach to a player's beaver and pull him back down to the beginning of the board where s/he must start again. There are leapfrog spaces that allow players to skip ahead on the track, and 'duck' spaces that allow a player to lay his/her beaver on its side to avoid the log.
