Crew 412 spent another great weekend on the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail getting ready for Philmont 2027 while introducing some new Scouts from Troop 373 to backpacking. We had enough people to split into two crews for hiking. Highlights included crossing the Pennsylvania Turnpike on Saturday and Beam Rocks on Sunday. https://www.instagram.com/crew.412.pittsburgh/
