Message from the T10 high Adventure Crew:
:Day 5, Friday 6/12/26: Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.
The frigid waters of the Shoshone River were no match for the fearless crew from Troop 10. To start the day, T10 led the morning flag ceremony before breakfast. After grabbing a meal, we got our equipment and headed for the river.
Today additional camp leaders joined in on the fun, bringing a bigger boat for half the crew to pilot. Nothing could stop our persistent paddlers as they navigated the Class 2 & 3 rapids of the Mormon Creen Run, the Gun Barrel Run and the Champaigne Run. The icy water was refreshing in the heat of the day, and all of our intrepid paddlers were able to stay in their boats like true river rats. Along the route we saw a huge next occupied by a mother and a couple of baby birds. At journeys end, we grabbed a late lunch and returned to camp to clean up and enjoy the afternoon. The trading post was open, and several crew members picked up snacks and camp swag.
Following dinner, the crew provided kitchen duties to serve the camp. During the evening activities, a team from the crew (Giro, Nelson and William) displayed their superior canoe skills in the Battle of the Tetons. The object of the battle was to pilot your canoe and swamp the other canoe using cut milk jugs. The staff boats were no match for our expert crew. Following our convincing victory, the scouts used the remaining daylight to fish and relax. Is it really Friday night already? Where did the time go? The crew is looking forward to returning home and share their adventures! See you out there!"
