The Trek- 
This is
one of our all time favorite treks because it’s the most exciting
and spectacular section of the Pacific Crest Trail in the state. We venture
north from Walupt Lake into the majestic Goat Rocks Wilderness to camp
near high alpine lakes, savor grand meadows and explore lofty views.
This section of the trail is the second highest point of the PCT in the
state
and a short side trail leads to the summit of Old Snowy Mt. for amazing
views.
This trek will introduce younger scouts, beginning at age 13, to our
exciting High Adventure program. We include Leave
No Trace camping and cooking, map, compass and GPS instruction, some
cross country hiking, problem solving, exploration, merit badge work,
Ranger
Award experience, patrol building, individual recognition and excitement.
This specialized experience will prepare young trekkers to return to
our High Adventure Base for even greater challenges. Let’s hike!
Suggested physical
training before the trek: Cardio-vascular exercise such as hiking with
a loaded pack, biking, running and weight training.
