JTG are registered BSA Climbing Merit Badge Counselors and Certified Rock Climbing Guides. Guide to climber ratio is 5:1. The Guides are certified by one or more of the following Professional Climbing Guides Institute-www.climbingguidesinstitute.org-www.amga.com \nCOSTS:1.

(absolute deadline) Checks payable to BSA Troop 355 Send to Brian Snaer (2605 South Oak Knoll Ave\, San Marino\, CA 91108)Your space is not reserved until your check is submitted\, first come\, first served! \nNOT INCLUDED:-Meals Planned by patrols(Saturday breakfast\, lunch\, dinner and Sunday breakfast)-Friday dinner on the road \nWhy in the world would we camp two nights?Several reasons: 1. Climbing starts at 7:00 am. 2. You need 21 nights of camping to get Eagle. 3. First class cooking signoff is much easier to do on a two nighter. Our next two nighter is Kern River in May. \nEQUIPMENT: Bring standard camp gear for car camping. The rock climbing school provides all climbing gear. Bring warm clothes. Weather ranges from 70 degrees in the day to 35 degrees at night. We will camp at 3200’\, and it can be cold and windy at night. Shorts are not recommended for climbing. \nDIRECTIONS:• Take I-10 East to Route 62. The exit is marked Morongo Valley and Yucca Valley.• Continue on Route 62 for approximately 28 miles to Joshua Tree.• Continue east through the city of Joshua Tree for about 12 miles. • Make a right turn (south) on Indian Cove Road. Drive about 1 mile to the Park entrance. Then you continue on 2 miles and turn right into the group campsite area. We are in group campsite 1• There is usually decent cell-phone coverage in camp• The number for the NPS Ranger at Indian Cove is 760-362-4367. \nFAQ’s \nQ: Can we drive in Saturday morning?A: Yes\, but you have to be there by 7:45 for the climbing \nQ: My son has a game\, can he come in late/early and still get the badge? A: No\, the badge takes all day\, including a classroom session around 4:00 pm. \nQ: What sort of climbing is required to get the badge?A: The Scouts needs to climb three different routes and repell three different routes. They also need to belay (with a guide back-up) three climbers on their routes. The routes are appropriate for beginners yet challenging for most of our Scouts. They have a safety line on at all times with little to no slack. \nQ: Can Dads climb?A: Yes\, dads can climb in the half day option. Priority for the limited spaces will go to the Scouts. If a Dad signs up for the half day and get bumped out by a Scout\, his check will be returned. Normally we have space for Dads! \nQ: My son doesn’t have the merit badge\, can he just climb the half day?A: No URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/indian-cove-rock-climbingclick-for-details-5/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20161104T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20161104T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T024023Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T024023Z UID:2518-1478217600-1478217600@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Indian Cove Rock ClimbingClick for Details DESCRIPTION:JOIN TROOP 355 AT JOSHUA TREEWHEN: Friday November 4th to Sunday November 6thWHERE: Indian Cove Campground\, Group Sites 1 Joshua Tree National Park.

Whitney – the highest mountain in the lower 48 states\, at 14\,495 feet above sea level. This is an exceptionally challenging hike – 22 miles and over 6\,000 feet of elevation gain. We will camp near the trailhead on Saturday night\, then make the summit attempt on Sunday. We will either camp or stay in Lone Pine on Sunday night\, then return home on Monday. \nAs safety will be our first priority\, this hike will be limited to our most active and experienced hikers. We anticipate that hikers will need to have completed a Philmont trek with the troop in order to get on the roster for this trip. If you are interested\, please contact Mr. Dawes to be placed on an interest list. We will fill the roster starting with our most experienced hikers. But current hiking will also be essential; anyone planning to make this hike should also attend our advanced troop hikes in August and early September. \nWe plan to offer this hike again in future years\, so our younger scouts who become involved in our hiking program will also have the opportunity to climb Mt. Whitney with 355.

This is a great opportunity for first time backpackers to get some experience because the hike into camp is 2.7 miles and one of the flattest hikes you are ever going to get in the Angeles National Forest (with only a net loss of 250 feet in elevation). \nParents and Scouts who are interested in backpacking are encouraged to attend. The 45 min meeting will cover the unique equipment needs for Scout backpacking. No uniforms required. You DO NOT need to sign up to attend – just show up – WE WILL START ON TIME. \nDon’t miss your chance to include backpacking in your Scouting experience! \nBrian SnaerAssistant Scoutmaster\, Troop 355626 840-7702 URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/introduction-to-backpacking-discussion-3/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160803T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160803T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023948Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023948Z UID:2426-1470182400-1470182400@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-11/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160802T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160802T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023948Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023948Z UID:2425-1470096000-1470096000@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-10/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160801T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160801T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023947Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023947Z UID:2424-1470009600-1470009600@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-9/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160731T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160731T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023946Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023946Z UID:2422-1469923200-1469923200@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-8/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160728T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160728T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023944Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023944Z UID:2416-1469664000-1469664000@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-5/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160727T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160727T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023943Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023943Z UID:2414-1469577600-1469577600@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-4/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160726T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160726T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023942Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023942Z UID:2412-1469491200-1469491200@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Philmont Scout Ranch DESCRIPTION: URL:http://54.184.4.128/event/philmont-scout-ranch-3/ CATEGORIES:High Adventure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160116T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20160116T000000 DTSTAMP:20260407T125951 CREATED:20200819T023851Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200819T023851Z UID:2304-1452902400-1452902400@54.184.4.128 SUMMARY:Webelos II Night at the Scout House - Click for Details DESCRIPTION:Boy Scout Troop 355 of San Marino is holding its annual Webelos II BBQ at the Lacy Park Scout House on Saturday\, January 16\, 2016.
