Shayne's First Boy Scout Backpacking trip







The Boy Scouts went backpacking to Big Falls at Mt Charleston in April. As you can see they encountered snow (even here in Las Vegas). They had a great time. Shayne (of all people) had to create the slide down the glacier. He is the one sliding down in both pictures. The rest of the boys had to follow (of course). They had snowball fights with other hiker that were there for the day. They hiked in on friday late afternoon, pitched their tents and hiked out on sunday morning. The boys had to carry their own gear including their own water and food. The filtered more water from a stream. Shayne says he had a great time.
