that many Winter Camp Activities may
be too demanding for children below
scouting age.
All vehicles coming to Winter Camp must have
Tire Chains available. Snow and ice conditions
exist almost every weekend on the three miles
of camp road, and if they don’t, they may very
well exist by departure time. Of course, we will
plow the road, but “BE PREPARED”. Regular
tour permit requirements prevail.

CHAINS AVAILABLE TO

One vehicle can block our camp road! State
Law

areas to carry chains.
