The forecast calls for 20-40 degree temperature with cloudy skies for the weekend. Tuesday and Wednesday we should have a bit of snow. I don’t know how much a bit of snow is but be prepared.The boys should all have a change of clothes plus extra socks gloves etc.You will need to bring your fire wood for cooking or what ever you are going to cook with.You will also need to bring your own water to cook with and wash with. There will be no cooking or washing facilities available.The road from the highway to the camp is approximately 2-3 miles long and is basically a one way road. We have arraigned for plowing but it might be a good idea to bring tire chains and a tow chain or rope. I have always found that when I have them I don’t need them and when I don’t have them I need them.Also be sure that you have enough rope and poles for event # 6 Hoist a log and event #10 Tying 8 knots.As the Cubs will be staying in the Main Lodge they will be in charge of cleaning it up. Bring supplies!!!Due to the limited parking area, it may be necessary for some to come into camp and unload and then go back and park at or near the Lazy Doe.Good Luck and see you there.Dave M
