Willow Park on the Jordan (What is that Smell?)

Hey the scouts kicked off their camping season with a first time trip to Willow Park in Lehi. It is right on the Jordan River and depending on which way the wind is blowing pretty darn close to a dairy farm.

 The prevailing wind grabs Alex's attention.
 A little rusty after a few months off from the finer points of springbars.
 Alex enjoying the brisk in brisket.
 Dinner in on and around the fire.
 Fire.
 About 20 degrees at this point. At least we were able to get Slade to get his jacket out of his bag, Couldn't get him to put it on more that this though. Did you know how cold it gets in Ukraine?
 River hike the next day after all the frost and ice chunks in the river melted. Picking up trash for service hours, identifying plants and animals and having fun.
 If you will pick it up and put it in the bag I will carry the bag. Seems fair.
 What's the worst a 2300 lbs. animal pumped full of hormones could do? Let's see if we can annoy them!
 Chris was strangely fascinated with this brown patty of steaming semi viscous mass.
Lunch and compass work finished off the afternoon.
