Another great Hike-o-ree in the books! We tackled Signal K**b and Meneka Peak during our ~10.5 miler on Saturday. Cold mornings in the 30's but a sunny day and hot backpacking-style meals (store bought, not freeze-dried MH) kept us warm.

What a great time in the Adirondacks! Five days canoeing and hiking in and around Cranberry Lake, NY. Great weather for the most part with a Friday morning low on the 18th of 50F!

Scouts have typically learned about three poisonous plants - poison ivy, poison oak and poison sumac. Here are a few more worth knowing. Three of these - giant hogweed, cow parsnip & wild parsnip can cause skin irritation, blistering rashes and skin discoloration after contact.
