Webelos Woods Continued,Hike day

This is our last day at camp and there are only 4 boys that are going on the hike. I was excited because it was to a waterfall. We earned about mushrooms and plants that are rare in the area, very awesome.



Here is Austin, Mickey, Calvin and Kellen they are the best of buddies.
Goofy time!!
My Way favorite picture on the hike,
all green and no touch ups this is the real picture!
We had only one more group with us for the hike, it was a Boy Scout troop. They were mixed in the group and were awesome helpers on the first night.
A red mushroom and very important to the Eco system.
A black mushroom, they weren't sure its name, one of a few in the area.
Ranger Yoeder, very smart and willing to answer all the questions from the boys. Showing us the blood orchid, it needs the trees and mushrooms around it to survive. Only a small amount in all, rare to find.

Here is the falls, what a neat hidden wonder.

The group mingling around.
Mickey all cool and chillin.
Austin and Mickey cheezn for the camera.


Now this picture is priceless, this is the picture taken seconds before his dad tried to dodge a picture and ended up in the stream. He got a little hurt and cold but not down the falls.

Discussing how to count the years of a downed tree with mushrooms.

I had a wonderful time and was glad that all were able to make it. I cant wait to do again.

I love the second picture you have of the boys all together, and the totally GREEN photo! That was a big adjustment for me when we moved here; everything is green almost all the time!!
