HIGH ADVENTURE 2006
June-July 2006 High Adventure Trip
White Mountains of New Hampshire
Mount Washington, at 6288 feet, is the highest peak east of the Mississippi
and north of North Carolina. "It is famous for its dangerously erratic weather,
and holds the record for the highest wind gust directly measured at the
Earth's surface, at 231 mph." (April 12, 1934)

WOULD YOU BELIEVE

1) a hike to the top of Mount Washington, plus
camping in Pinkham Notch and Tuckerman Ravine,
2) canoeing and camping on the Saco River,
3) swimming in the Atlantic Ocean, walking the
Marginal Way in Ogunquit, Maine, eating seafood
in Perkins Cove,
4) visiting the North End, Paul Revere's house, the
Freedom Trail, Fenway Park and Chinatown, and
5) watching the Fourth of July fireworks while
listening to the Boston Pops and Aerosmith live —
all in one trip?

FACTOID

Three Scout patrols went on this trip: the Moose,
Raven and Fox Patrols. In the White Mountains we
saw three species up close and personal: a Moose,
a Raven, and a Fox!
