SPEC! l IN EREST 2 CAMPING Ken-Mont's motto is 'ckeep the camp in campingi' and 1969 saw the greatest interest in our tripping program ever. Our diverse and far ranging camping expeditions found each group in a different and exciting area. Donlt ever sell the American boy short! The spirit of adventure and adaptibility to rough environment still is part of our make up. Every boy in camp had the opportunity to pitch a tent, build a fire, cook, eat raw or burned food, clean a messkit, test his endurance on a hike, avoid C25 poison ivy, sleep in his clothes, listen to a scarry ghost story, count the billion stars at night . . . and back at camp, spend hours removing the accumu- lated dirt! A Lower camp tripping again was led by our rugged elder statesmen, that premier cook of home fries the morning after, Elderberry J ack Turek. The Bluejays had their introduction to poineer- ing by sleeping out at the Pine Point camp site, a dense hemlock forest along the lake not far from the saildock. Every little man had his chores-tent pitching, wood gathering and clean up, but it seems we spent most of our time eating Jackis delicious cooking. Campfire and story time at night were great and when we crawled into our sleeping bags. the bed of pine needles felt like a down mattress CD Jerry cooked our breakfast in the morning and we can still smell the bacon sizzling! .. ::E.'-ter.. :::..'::e:- '--'D f--f- ..........w,..... . . The Sparrows, .our eight year old boys, braved the wilds of Mohawk Forest, again with Jack blaz- ing the way. This was their first experience away from camp and Jack tells us they were the most rugged Sparrow group ever. One thing certain- they ate more food than any group of 8 year old boys ever did! - The Robins also camped at Mohawk State Forest although their trip was a far more rugged one. The highlight was a hike through famous Black Spruce Bog. One of the few specimen of its kind in the country, the Bog was gouged out by the last great glaciers, some 16,000 years ago. The soft muck is some 60 feet deep and it never com- pletely freezes in spite of 300 below zero winter tempe-ratures. There is all types of vegetation grow ing in it, even semi-tropical varieties. Although the Bog has undoubtedly claimed hundreds of animal lives over the centuries, the Rangers have laid a boardwalk over the bog and we were able to closely observe the phenomena. The Falcons, on their first three day campout ever, explored the wilds of Pittsfield State Forest in Western Massachusetts. Now for the first time, the boys put to a test the woodsmanship they had learned. Berry Pond, the climb over Berry Mountain and the evening trip to town were memorable. The old menn of lower camp, the Cardinals camped out for three days atop the highest point
