Have you ever thought of Rock Climbing? Troop 88 of Parker Colorado not only answers yes - but with a hearty yell - YES!

At an altitude of 8,000 feet, Vedauwoo is a rather secluded rocky oasis in southeastern Wyoming, filled with dense pine forests and groves. It is surrounded by a seemingly endless expanse of high plains and lies under a dome of intense cerulean blue sky. Views from the tops of the crags are stunning, and one can see from Wyoming's ragged mountains clear down the Continental Divide to Long's Peak, some 75 miles south in Colorado.

Troop 88 recently went on a 3 day weekend camping trip to Vedauwoo - and even family member's went on this trip. parents and little siblings got to hang out with the boys and watch them learn a new skill... rock climbing.

One of our favorite older scouts - Matt who is home from college - went on the trip, rock climbing being one of his favorite actives - showed the younger scouts how scaling the side of a rock is fun.

Troop 88 meets every Tuesday night at 6:30PM at the Parker Presbyterian Church (PEPC). 9100 E. Parker Road (up East Main Street past Canterberry).
You can visit our website at www.TROOP88.ORG or call Scoutmaster, Joe Skalisky, 303-805-0337 for more information.
