THE PASQUANEY ANNUAL 35 THE WALKS, 1929 Photograph by Wade Levering OUR STALWART LEADER OF l929 The walks have a very dennite place- in the life and routine at Pas- quaney. They are a dl e c i d e dc contribution to the Camp in the accomplishment of its purpose. The various activities at Pasquan-ey are plan-ned with a certain e'n'd in view, the building of character, and the hikes, especially the Long Walk, serve immeasurably in this respect. Furthermor-e walking is the most accessible of 'the Camp activities. Anyone in normal physical condition can Walk. In the case of tennis, crew, or baseball this is not true, a certain amount of rather irksome training ha-s to be undergo-ne. The Walks of nineteen twenty- nine began as usual with the walk over 'the' Barnard Estate. This took place on the first Saturday after- noon. Practically every boy in Camp was taken along, and no one seemed very fatigued by the four

THE PASQUANEY ANNUAL 37 an-d a half miles taken at a very slow pace. The day was not especially propitious as the low hanging clouds interfered wit-h any very distan't view. Because of in- termittent rains on Friday and Sat- urday the paths and roads were rather muddy and disagre-eable. However, no one s-eemed to- object and dry shoes were obtained imme- diate-ly after retur-ning to Camp. On 'the following week, July sixth, we w-ere fortunate eno-ugh to have a clear though very h-ot day. This walk to Clement-s Hill was the first of the all-day hikes. The party, consisting of about seventy and in- cluding Mr. jackson, set out at ten o'clock. Because of th-e large number of smaller boys the pace was again a very slow one. At the top o-f the hill, lunch and a drink of cold water were enthusiastically received. The view from Clements Hill is always good. Despite a slight haze, Mount Watsliingtoniwas plainly visible. The boys were interested in d'iscov'e-ri-ng the initials C, P. cut in the rocks by t-he walkers in 1897. It was nece-ssary before the next walk to eliminate a considerable- number of boys. The trip to- Wel- ton Fa-ll's, taken on Mo-ndray the fifteenth of July, is eighteen miles in length and quite- difficult. Conse- quently the number was cut down from 'seventy to forty. The cus- tomary route wa's taken: aroun-d the lake to Hebron, up over Ho-bart's Photograph by Brooke Stoddard, ON THE WAY TO WELTON FALLS Hill to the falls. A halt was called in a blueberry patch about two- miles from the falls where an excellent view was -obtained of Mount Cardi- gan. The return journey wals made over the old post road to the lake. Launches were provided to trans- port the party home acr-oss the lake. In order 'that more boys might be given the opportunity of seeing Weilt-oin Falls, a Hshort walku wa-s organized. This group, led by Mr. Lillard, went and returned by the post road using motor boats at both ends of the journey. This cut the
