Welcome to one of Santa Barbara's Oldest Scouting Troop

Scouting builds character. When you enter scouting as young boy you can barely look after yourself, but by the time you graduate you've not only learned how to take care of yourself but of the importance of looking after of one another.

Great Backpacking Food Link

Here in the last few days before the Sierra trip, I thought I'd re-send this link to the guide on Sierra cooking from Troop 33 dad Mark Wilkinson:

Lots of great recipes, instructions for dehydrating, and a guide for calculating the most energy-efficient foods. (A good rule of thumb is that when you're shopping, look for 4+ calories per gram of weight.)
