Wednesday Pack Activities (4/22/2026)

Bear, Ruffers, Lucy, Tozai

Carl, Griff, Alfie, Lumi

Adventure Pack

After a stop at the water bowl by the Chautauqua trail head, Bear seemed like he would be game for hiking up Bluebell Road. Ruffers had other ideas, though, and kept stopping, backtracking, and standing in place; so, we took the first detour back across Chautauqua Trail and hiked the flatter trails of the meadow today. Lucy and Tozai enjoyed romping through the meadow together, while Ruffers and Bear were more focused on finding the shade and lingering there. Even though it was Ruffers who vetoed the uphill hike, Bear was the one who most resisted moving on from the shady trees we found along the way.

Variety Pack

Carl, Griff, Alfie, and Lumi headed to Bear Creek Greenway this afternoon. The boys were thorough in their olfactory investigations today, all following up on each other's work and making sure plenty of notes were left at points of interest. The trail marker boulders received surprisingly little attention, but trees and random patches of tall grass received the full treatment.
