Good Times



This is great! Awesome job to whoever thought of this. Here is a photo of "the next generation" of scouts at Idylwild and one of our visit to the Hoover Dam.


The joys and memories of scouts will last your lifetime and bring comfort and joy to your life as you think back upon the days of blissful freedom. The outdoors, brothers in arms (more like legs), companions for the testing of yourselves.

CANOEING ON THE COLORADO


Few trips can match the beauty, challenge, serenity and fun of the Black Canyon Canoe Trip.  The sharp contrast of the blue-green water, which we could see through to the bottom, with the cliffs on either side of the canyon were very dramatic.  The additional treat of hot springs along the way were an absolute blast and Mr. Z's airplane ride sure helped out with traveling miseries after the long 3-day trip on the river.  Thanks to all!! 

EXTREME BACKPACKING



Little can be said, when so much has been experienced, of a week-long adventure! Our Troop plans to challenge both the strength and teamwork of its scouts this summer with a Serria Expo, tallying over 50+ MILES!
