Huntsville Hike

This was our first campout to get the scouts ready for the week long Buffalo River Trail hike in March. This was an overnight campout/hike on Jan 31, 2009 in the Huntsville State park.

We arrived after the sun had gone down so everyone had to set up camp in the dark. The boys must have been tired because they went to bed soon after dinner. We woke up early, but didn't start hiking until about 10:00 am. We hiked about 10 miles total.
