Registration is open for our Eagle Rock Loop backpacking expedition on March 5-9 (Spring Break). You must be 14 and First Class, or signed up to attend Philmont this summer in order to register. This includes Scorpions, Titans, Thunderbirds, Panthers, and Greyhounds.
This is a very rigorous and remote hike, it puts the High Adventure in High Adventure! You should be physically fit to make this trek and prepared to be challenged. Your reward is beautiful scenery, hanging with your buddies, and a great shakedown for Philmont this summer, if you are on that trek.
I strongly recommend that all scouts signed up for Philmont this summer attend this hike. It is a great gear shakedown and will let you know how prepared you are for Philmont.
Chris Day will send out additional details so be on the lookout for that.
Please register by Sunday, Feb. 7th at 8pm
