Maine
Troop 777 announces a 2011 Summer High Adventure Trip to Maine! We will leave Hudson in the last half of July and will head to the North woods wilderness of Baxter State Park in Maine. We will climb Mount Katadin and camp at Chimney Pond for three days. We will make an attempt to cross Knife's Edge and hike the other trails that originate from Chimney Pond. We will then make our way to the coast overnighting someplace close to Bar Harbor. From Bar Harbor, we will take sea kayaks out to Acadia National Park and stay on ocean islands awhile interacting with nature on a very personal level. We will finish our last night in Maine with a lobster feast prior to heading home. The drive up and back will take two days each way allowing form some sightseeing along the way. The proposed cost for this trip is $950 a person. We will have an initial contingent meeting March 17, 7:00 PM at HPC with commitments due soon thereafter. There is a draft budget and itinerary available on the troop Intranet. Get the flyer by clicking here!

This trip is currenly full: Troop 777 announces a 2011 Summer High Adventure Trip to Sea Base! We have secured two crews.
Coral Reef Sailing. Your trip will be on a 40- to 50-foot sailing yacht which will become your home for a
week. It has a large self-contained galley and dining area where you will prepare meals from the fresh or
canned foods supplied by Sea Base, supplemented by fresh catches from trolling while sailing. Our
captain will provide instruction in navigation, fishing and sailing, and will remain on board for the entire
trip. Our crew will be able to select our own float plan to explore the beautiful Florida Keys and see areas
that are not readily available to the landlubber and offers one-of-a-kind snorkeling and abundant fishing.
The budgeted cost of this trip is $1500 and includes all airfare, touring, all meals, a custom embroidered
fishing shirt and sun boney hat! Our crew size is limited to a maximum of 16 members and participants
