WINTER IS OVER

The snow is melted.
But just one more trip to Bogong, I promise! For the second time this year, Forest journeyed down to Victoria to play silly buggers at the Chalet. We made the most of the week there with lots of big hikes (some hopeful with skis on their packs). Maude hosted a tea party at Wallace's hut with costumes and pastries, the Bogong Bridge Troll (too gruesome to depict in this post) was found in the Langford aqueduct giving a surf report, whereas Xandercorps™ recently mandated proper kitchen PPE: the safety sombrero!

🏔️Chalet for the Snow⛷️
Recently, Emily and old fogie Daniel went down to the Bogong Rover Chalet for a week of cross-country skiing. Together with some friends from Platabeen Rovers, plus a whole bunch of new ones, it was a great time all around.

STRAIGHT UP BUILDIN'

Rovers love to make experiences, but did you know Rovers also love to make stuff out of old gas bottles? (Make sure the gas is removed first)

Share this post with anyone you know between the ages of 18 & 25, who has also been inside a building before.

We went to the snow.

We went to the snow with a lot of our good friends from around the Sydney North Region and had a lot of fun playing and skiing and falling over.

Bunglers bungling in the 'Bungles.
The ever-present draw of the Warrumbungles whispered to Forest Rovers this past long weekend, and a heroic party was sent to explore.
We went on the Grand High Tops walk (yes, the shoes were named after this!), and saw Belougery Spire and the Breadknife. (yes, the knife was named after this!)
A trip to the famous Siding Springs Observatory was also observed, inspiring us to try out our own astrophotography on the cold, dark nights we had there.

This week at Rovers we had the birthdays of Rhyse & Emily, so we decided to celebrate with some Korean BBQ goodness 😋

Do you also have a birthday this year? Does it place your age between 18 and 25 years old? Give Rovers a try! DM our page to find out more!

Part 2 - How did our talented gamblers go?

Well, I can safely say we all have much lighter pockets after the slot machine took all our 20c pieces, and Ollie even got a new car! I'm not sure it's much of a reliability upgrade over his Prado, though.

Sites: Serviced ✅
Activities: Based ✅
Leader: In Charge ✅
Scouts: Hiked ✅

We had our grubby mitts all over Sleep Point 6 at Scout Hike this past weekend, with members of Forest taking up roles on Sleep Point (including Emily in the lead!) as well as running a great activity base for the nameless and faceless Scouts. (Thanks L.J.B. for leading the Escape the Social Media Ban activity!)

Aidan & Darcey also designed all the activity bases at Sleep Point 6 this year, so go and check out 2nd Normanhurst Rover Unit 1st Kissing Point Rover Crew 1st Turramurra Rovers for a peek at the rest of those!
