Frozen Head // Apr 2024

ELECTRONICS REMINDER 📱🕹️

One of the great benefits of heading out on any of our trips is that we’re able to unplug from our digital world for a few days. Electronics are allowed while traveling to our destinations, but we have a longstanding rule that

Scouts are not allowed to use electronics while on our trips (i.e. if brought they’ll be left in vehicles and not used during the trip).

ITINERARY

We’ll head up to Frozen Head on Friday afternoon and base camp in one of their primitive sites in the middle of the park. After breaking fast and camp Saturday morning we’ll head up the mountain to the lookout tower and on to the Mart Fields campsite. Sunday morning we’ll descend back down and head home.

Please note that while this is rated an intermediate trip, the amount of elevation puts it on the higher end of the intermediate range. Take a look at the elevation profile below to see how steep the hike in on Saturday is.
