Shakedown weekend

Our Boy Scouts hit the trail for a backpacking shakedown. We learned to use the gear and rehearsed the routines that we will need when we hit the wilderness at Cumberland Gap next month. It was a good weekend; I've been needing such a trip for a very long time, now.

Some pix from the weekend are below. Click on any pic to enlarge.
