March 2017 - Reunion Flats - Teton Canyon

We had just barely enough snow to make it up to our campsite at Reunion Flats.  But we had Teton Canyon almost entirely to ourselves that night.

January 2016 Planning Campout - Hancock Cabin

We had a great overnight outside the cabin, and wonderful stay inside the rest of the time.  Friday evening dinner was a potato bar, with homemade ice cream.


We then watched a wonderful and inspiring movie - the Queen of Katwe before heading out to the tents.

The next morning we had the wonderful help of two Cedar Badge staffers - Kelly and Eliza to teach the squad some leadership skills before we began our plan for the year.

We appreciated their presentations on both the basics of being a leader and effective planning.

We then spent the remainder of our time creating a charter for the ODD Squad and planning out the monthly activities for the year - and here they are!

December 2016 - Harriman State Park

For our inaugural campout we spent a warm night in the Yurt at Harriman State Park.  Outside it was COLD (-30 F).  The next day we braved the cold for a bit with a nice ski down the river to the old Railroad Ranch and back again.
