Scout Hike

On Sunday, March 13th, the webelos were going on a three mile hike for one of their adventures.

The boys making their trail mix for the road.  AJ is in the van making sure everything is done right.  :-)

AJ chatting with his scout friends before the hike.

While we were waiting, what do the boys go and look for?!?  Of course sticks.  You have to have sticks!!!

The parents having a good chuckle before the hike.

Giving everybody the pre-hike talk, as you can see all the boys have sticks now!!

And they are off!!!  They took off fast and we were wondering if there were going to be able to keep up that pace the whole hike.  They really did, it was crazy.

Michael and  David having a great chat as we are heading up the mountain.

Michael decided that he didn't want to  be in back anymore and was working on catching up with his brother.

Here the trail was getting a little steeper and narrower.

We made it to the top!!!!  It was snack and water break!

Michael enjoying being able to sit down for a little bit.

AJ decided that he wanted to whittle his walking stick so it would be the right size.

Michael heading off into the woods - will we ever see him again?!?

There he is!!!!

David and I enjoying the day also!!!

At the top there is a geo cache, so he is giving them a little clue about where it might be.

The motley crew that hiked up!

And they were off to find the "treasure."

All the boys seeing what is inside the box.

 





The four of us at the top!!!  I am the only one without a stick and not sure how that happened.  :-)

Michael always taking the high road!!!

 

 

And we are heading down the hill.  It was a beautiful day for a hike and we all had a wonderful time doing it!!!!
