| no partners | | | Took five 11 year old scouts through the cave (went to the library and back). Took car which did fine (probably wouldn't if it was raining or rained recently). Learned that when you get to the T in the cave (literally the only T that I know of) both ways will take you to the library. Cave was mostly dry, everyone had fun going down the slide and through the birth canal. Would recommend bringing a garbage bag to help haul-out trash. |

| no partners | | | Took a group of scouts on the rim to Bear Canyon Lake. This is a popular destination and a great place to get into the forest. I prefer to camp along RD 208 which has a trail to the head of the lake. Still a few patches of snow in the shade. A few swam in the lake but it was cold. Only found a few crawdads but have gone when warming and they are all over in the shallows (great boiled). |

| no partners | | | Took a group of 11 year old scouts and camped at the Gilbert Riparian Area. Area is clean and quite at night. Scouts had fun birding, fishing, and exploring the trails. Great destination during the winter that is in Phoenix's backyard. |
