Location: Lake Winfield Scott/Blood Mountain
Date: February 15, 2020
Time: 8 am - approx. 4:45 pm

In lieu of a patrol camping trip, the Wolverine patrol has opted to instead do a day hike. We will be driving to Lake Winfield Scott. This is about an hour and a half drive from Simpsonwood UMC. From there, we'll hike this loop, which will take us to Blood Mountain and back. This loop is a 7.7 mile hike and should take about 3-4 hours (plus any additional time we'd take for lunch and enjoying the view).

Here is a rough itenerary for the day:

8:00 am - Meet at the church
8:15-10:00 - Drive to Lake Winfield Scott (includes a QT stop)
10:00 - Arrive at Lake Winfield Scott
10:00-3:00 - Hike (includes stopping for lunch on the trail)
3:00-4:45 pm - Drive back to the church (includes a snack stop on the way)

Need 10+ scouts to help with upcoming Blue Devil Run - this Saturday, February 8th. Please sign up to help!
