December Camp out and Hike
Posted by t48bsa under News | Tags: Activities, Camping, Hiking |Leave a Comment
Our next camp out will be December 11 & 12 at Old Man’s Cave. On Saturday we will be hiking the lower gorge from Old Man’s Cave to Cedar Falls and then back on the ridge trail. This will be a good warm up hike for the Winter Hike coming up in January. We will be joined by former T48 Scout Jeremy Poetker. This will be Jeremy’s last camp out before he departs in January on a mission trip for his church.

Although I have not talked to any one after the campout and hike they may have set a new cold weather record for the troop. The temperature when I left them at 8:00 on Friday evening was between 3 and 5 above zero. If any one wants to e-mail me a report or pictures I will post it. Follow this link to see the pictures I took on Friday as they were setting up.

Hey guess what, it’s that time of year again. On Friday January the 16th the Troop will be leaving from the Church at 5:00 pm for Old Man’s Cave and the Winter Hike. We have reserved campsite G3 and are hoping for winter weather. On Saturday we will hike from Old Man’s Cave to Ash Cave. Remember to bring money to cover a donation for lunch at Ceader Falls and for the bus ride from Ash Cave back to Old Man’s Cave as well as any patches you may want to purchase. Here are a couple pictures from the 2002 winter hike. Recognize any one?
