SUNDAY, MAY 20, 1923. TROOP 4 NOT TO HIKE UP GASPER MOUNTAIN UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY Edward and Tom Miller, Two-Day Trp, Report That Snow There Is Still Waist Deep. Troop Four of the Casper Boy Scouts will abandon its hike proposed for the week-end, to the top of the Casper mountains and start on this hike next Friday afternoon. Two scouts, Edward and Tom Miller made the trip last Friday and stayed up on top until Sunday and they report the snow waist deep yet. These two scouts left Casper in the morning and hiked to the top of the mountains by 2 o'clock in the afternoon they met Dave Crockett who is staying on top at present and then they hiked over to Fred Patec's cabin on the head of Garden creek | where they stayed for the n’ght. Edward Miller was the lad who was run over about two weeks ago, by an automobi'e but he has fully recovered from the accident and was able to carry his loaded pack of 60 pounds | without any trouble. The two Scouts made a report and map of their trip for the Troop, the map showing what country they ‘passed through and gave a full de scription of what they found on the trails and how they surmounted dif- ficulties. Dave Crockett asked Troop Four to warn travelers not to use the old telephone trail for the time being, in climbing the mountain. This trail runs along the lower side of the} mountain road for a mile or more end Dave is blasting rock on the road and often the blasts send down ava- lanches of rock on the old trail. The road is being widened and put into excellent shape by Mr. Brile and Dave Crockett and this summer it will be passable at any point for cars to go up and down the mountain. ‘The scouts of Troop Four who made the journey last week, found the wild Ufe on top of the mountain in ex- cellent condition after the winter, the) birds and animals are plentiful and seemed fat and happy. SCOUT NOTES Back From Summit After of the next week outlining in detail the summer camp and its advantages, It was announced last week from local scout headquarters, that Scout | Executive E. G. Stoll of Ames, Jowa Would be the assistant camp director | this summer. Many special instrne-| tors have been engaged for the sum-| | ™mer and among them, Dr Thomas E. Winecoff who has been with the} Smithsonian Institute for a number of years, Dr. Winecoff will be special| instructor in geology and “bugology.” Scout Executive H. Roe Bartle will be the camp director and will have full charge of the preliminary ar- rangemonts for the summer camp. A| goodly number of scout officials have! thus far designated their intentions of attending the summer camp with their respective troops. Last Wednesday afternoon, Troop 6 of the First Baptist church, under |the leadership of Scoutmaster Har- mon MacMasters, hiked to Garden Creek falls, where the troop indulged in a weiner roast. After the troop had demonstrated their ability as cooks, they were given a special In- struction in astronomy by their scoutmaster. Deputy Commisstoner W. C. Goodwin was the official story- teller of the evening and around the! camp fire entertained the troop with some first class ghost stories. . The commissioner will attend the summer camp in the Big Horn mountains and according to Troop 6, he is a high class ghost story man. ‘Be prepared for the Council fire at the great sum-| | top floor of the new Scott buildin. |116 East Second street. tains August 12 to 25," is a word that has been sent out.
