High Adventure Scout Camp

Reed returned from High Adventure camp today. He went up to Sequoia National Park and hiked approx 25 miles over 5 days. He had a fantastic time and said the views were the most spectacular he had ever seen. When he was dropped off, his leaders told us what a great kid he was and how he never complained and was a ton of fun, and they were so happy he came. (that makes it all worthwhile) I was hoping he would catch a fish this trip...but my theory once again is upheld..."there are no fish in California". He had two run-ins with Rattlesnakes and saw a big bear. He came home with a peeling sunburn, and mosquito bites but was happy as can be. He said the worst part of the trip was his tent partner's breath....only to realize, he was actually smelling his own armpit. Ugh!

Be sure to post a report when Reed goes on the 'Low Adventure' camp. I've always been interested in those, but you never seem to hear about them...
