Rock climbing

Jake and Dave went camping and rock climbing the day after Thanksgiving with the older scouts. The place they went was about 2 hours west of us and Dave said it reminded him of Big Bear in California. He did a GREAT job taking pictures.



What a beautiful view!


The cool shelter that Dave made for him, Jake and Zack.


The boys trying to get the fire going.


Jake cooking his delicious dinner of Spam.


Jake fashioned himself a comfy hammock and the other boys all bundled up like in little cocoons. So much for the shelter Dave made!


The next morning they did some repelling and rock climbing.


Jake was a little nervous about taking that first initial step over.


Once he got going he really enjoyed it.


Dave was holding the end of the rope and left Jake hanging there.


Their fearless leader, Bro. White showing them how to do it.


I think this is a cool shot of Jake.


Almost to the top.
