The Grand Teton Council puts on this wonderful scout leadership program in June every year. It’s at a beautiful location, the people are very nice, and they put a huge amount of effort into the program. This is scouting the way you want it to be, at least it looked that way when I was there dropping off my son (but he told me he really enjoyed it). I had air-miles saved and vacation time, so I called and they welcomed my son’s attendance.

I hiked all week while he was at camp. Very cool trip, we took in Yellowstone the next week. We also took interest in the whole Lewis and Clark expedition while out there and made our way to their route across Idaho. I’ll post photos once I figure out how to use wordpress better.

The scout camp is on the very back side of the Grand Teton, which is the center-most mountain on this site’s header. When seen from the scout camp, the back of the Grand Teton looks like the Matterhorn in Zermatt. The scout camp was also at the base of this large waterfall, it really was beautiful.
