Last weekend Britt and Beau went on a backpacking trip in Vermont with the scouts. They actually didn't make it to the wilderness site because some of the kids were struggling in the cold and wet and mud, so to be on the safe side, the group turned back and camped at a regular campground then those who were up for it did some more day hiking the next day.
It was Beau's first actual backpacking trip, that is, he carried not only his personal gear, but also sleeping gear, tent, share of food, etc.
He wasn't the trip youth leader, but he is a patrol leader, so here he is at the departure rendezvous point conferring with the adult trip leader about what needs to be done.

Apparently, Beau's patrol could be called the curly-haired kid patrol.
Here's the vista from Day #2.
