On the eve of March 8, we prepared to embark on an epic adventure to uncharted territory: the Shiloh Military trails in West Tennessee. With high hopes, we arrived late that night at our campsite. Those hopes were brought down when we discovered we had forgotten our water cooler. However, […]
We started out taking a long 5 hour drive up to the Cataloochee Ski Area. On the way up we stopped at Taco Bell. You can get a lot for $5 dollars, and I think everybody liked it. We stayed at Lake Junaluska. We arrived around midnight, but most stayed […]
Our troop left for Fall Creek Falls on Friday at five o’clock. Our patrols were smaller than usual. The Bucks had seven people including adults, and the otters had five people including adults. We also had two dogs with us. We arrived at our campsite in the dark, set up camp, and […]

The bucks Patrol headed to land between the lakes in Kentucky for a weekend of mountain biking. We stopped at the golden pond welcome area to get our backcountry camping permits. On the way in we saw these flying agarics which we had to stop and photograph. We set up […]
This was a very fun and succesful trip. Almost all the Otters finished their canoeing merit badge and all the Bucks got the sailing merit badge. The wind was perfect… so perfect, that a few sailboats capsized. The sail got a little muddy but otherwise they were okay. We played capture the […]
