Troop 373 will march in the annual Veteran's Day parade to honor those who have served our country. Sign up is now open! 

Come join us for a day trip adventure! Scouts who complete this hike will earn a Colorado 14er Club patch. 

These are some of the easier 14ers, if there is such a thing as an 'easy' 14er. Families are welcome. 

There are a few options for which 14er we do depending on group size and ability:

•       Mt Evans from Summit Lake - 5.5 miles, 2000 ft elevation gain - $10 per car national forest fee
•       Mt Bierstadt from Guanella Pass - 7.0 miles, 2850 ft elevation gain 
•       Torreys Peak -  7.5 miles, 3000 ft elevation gain 

Trails are Class 1 to a little bit of Class 2,  so it is a nice trail the whole way up. 

We need to start early in order to reach the summit by mid-morning to avoid afternoon thunderstorms and to secure a close parking space. On busy weekend days parking can be 1 plus miles from the trailhead, so we need the 4-5 am start from Newton.

Wear sturdy hiking shoes/boots. Bring a day backpack with rain jacket, sunscreen, fleece hat, gloves/mittens, baseball cap, snacks and between 70 and 100 ounces of water and energy drinks.

Please sign up on the website so we can coordinate drivers.

We'd want to stop on the way back for a late lunch - likely Beaujo's pizza in Idaho Springs.  Bring $20 for lunch and gas money.

Kyle Arnold will be the scout in charge for this hike, and Jim Arnold will be the adult in charge. 

Questions: Contact Kyle Arnold (Karnoldco@gmail.com) 720-595-6015 or Jim Arnold (jimmtman@yahoo.com) 303-260-8661, but preferably Kyle Arnold.

Sign up is open for Camporee!
