Nick’s HAT report

High Adventure was really fun but was also very challenging at the same time. It was a trip to learn a lot of things about camping and to really get you into shape. I personally learned a lot about being prepared and not leaving things in cars. Pretty much the whole backpacking part of the trip I was unprepared because I left a bunch of things that I needed in Reuben‘s car. This trip also got a big break off of technology which I think a bunch of people are addicted too. This trip also had activities such as white water rafting and climbing and rappelling. We all learned some valuable things on this trip. This was one of the hardest but one of the most fun trips I have been on.

Libor’s HAT report

In my opinion, the 2011 High Adventure Trip was great. Splitting the troop into patrols for the backpacking portion proved to be an excellent idea which enabled all boys to challenge themselves without leaving anyone behind. I am definitely going to Cohutta Wilderness again. It is quite a backpacking gem. Climbing & rappelling at Lost Wall was fun. Things could go little bit faster but we probably could have set up another climbing top rope or shorter rappel. Rafting Nantahala river was the cherry on top of a well planned trip where everyone had a blast. It just takes closing my eyes for a few seconds in these days to re-live the rapids, the storm, the shiver, and the laughter of everyone on this trip. Just wait until someone calls your name and with a big smile says ‘HI’ upon getting your attention.
