| Scouts Reach 4420ft Mt. Hancock |
Sunday's return hike was a wetter undertaking. Missing from photo is Activity Coordinator Mr. Woodward. Thanks to our adults - Mr. Woodward, Mr. Sewell, Mrs. Cutter, and Mr. Sayer who participated and coordinated this trip. Click here for more photos of backpack trip. |

Our main hike group departed on Sat morning to meet up with the advance hike group of Mr. Sayers and Jeremy already in the Pemigewasset Wilderness before ascending Mt. Hancock. From the trailhead, Lucas, with map and compass, lead the way along the Hancock Notch and Cedar Brook Trails with it's many stream crossings. Luke selected a tent site along the Cedar Brook Trail which coincidentally was the same site used 7 years ago when Troop 19 last backpacked the Hancocks. This main group pitched the tents and secured gear to lighten packs for the hike up to the Hancock Loop Trail and summits ...approximately another 1500ft elevation gain. Shortly after, the main group met Jeremy playing backpacking guitar (See note) and Mr. Sayers waiting before the summit loop junction, where two hike groups A and B would form. Hike Group A hiked the Hancock Loop Trail clockwise and climbed both the north and south 4000' summits. Hike Group B climbed just the north summit. Both groups returned to their base camp around 6pm to start preparing dinner in the drizzle. All remained dry during a rainy night. Scouts remember to clean and air out your gear - especially sleeping bags, tents, and packs. Return troop gear as soon as possible and inform Troop Quartermaster Everett of any problems. |
