berg and Patricia Fagone. The five report the trip as "mem

Four Senior Scouts, Leader
Make Long BackPackTrip
A major feat this summer
for four Medford Senior Girl
Scouts was a six-day, 60-mile
hike along the Skyline trail
from Lake of the Woods to
Annie Springs camp at Crater
Lake park gate. The four
girls, Angelika Bayley, Con
nie Stalcup, Janice Lange
berg and Patricia Fagone,
with their leader, Mrs. L. A.
Pritchard, made the back
pack trip, carrying all their
food and equipment.
Each Scout's pack at the
start of the trip weighed
about 30 pounds, and Mrs.
Pritchard started with a heav
ier pack of almost 40 pounds.
Camps were made at Long
lake, Heavenly Twin Lakes,
Grass lake, Maude mountain,
Stuart falls and Annie Springs
camp.
Mrs. Pritchard reports that
"it was an adventure none
are likely to forget." The
girls thoroughly enjoyed the
beautiful scenery, the animals
and birds and not even a
heavy downpour of rain one
afternoon failed to dampen
their spirits. A shelter, hot
fire and warm food soon made
the hikers forget the bad
weather.
Mrs. Pritchard states that
the group prepared for the
long hike by taking a number
of warm-up trips. Each girl
planned her own food sup
ply, with advice from the
leader and experienced hikers
and campers. The group car
ried the required shovel and
axe, and Mrs. Pritchard be
lieves that tor the next trip
they will add a small saw to
their equipment. Some hikers
and campers find the saws
more useful than an axe for
cutting fire wood.
One camp was a "dry"
camp, and for these two days
the hikers had only the wa
ter each carried.
Plans are already being
made for a similar excursion
We have several openings for experienced

be able to express all the
love and joy inherent in the
story of the birth of Christ
which they are telling."
