Complications Cut
Boy Scout 50-Mile
Hike Short on Hood
Four scouts from Heppner
Troop 661 hiked half-way
around Mount Hood, on the
Timberline Trail covering about
25 miles Thursday evening, Fri
day and Saturday morning of
last week. They carried their
supplies for the trip in back
packs of about 30 pounds each.
Barney Marshall, Du a n e
Steers, Jim Healy and Rob Ab
rams with advisor Bob Abrams
planned the hike for a 50-mile
complete circuit of the mount
ain, but were forced to come
back to civilization when Ab
rams began suffering from arth
rities in a previously broken hip
joint.
Extreme heat and . a lengthy
trail detour added to the diffi
culty of the trip and played a
part in the decision to stop at
Tilly Jane Campground on the
northeast slope of the mount
ain. A camping family, Mr. and
Mrs. Keith Zilk and children
David and Janey of Portland,
generously took Bob around the
mountain to pick up his bus at
Timberline Lodge, and he re
turned to get the boys and drive
back to Heppner.
On Monday the four boys
hiked down to Heppner from a
point 25 miles out on the Coal
Mine Hill road. This completed
their 50 miles of hiking in the
five days allowed.
They were accompanied on
this hike by Tim Smith of
Heppner, a distance runner on
last year's Heppner track team.

1:15 p.m. and 8 p.m. Saturday,
