Geocache Description:


This cache is placed with the camps permission.

This cache is not available when the road is blocked off, brown barricades across the road, at the camp entrance.  This will be a few weekends in the summer and a few other random times. 

Reaching the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America requires years of dedication and hard work. In addition to 21 required merit badges, each Scout must complete a project that — on average — requires 167 service hours. In 2008 alone, that translated to $16 million in service (based on the national volunteer hour value of $19.51).

This cache is part of a nationwide geocaching series called ?"Cache to Eagle" that showcases these special contributions.  In Whatcom County there are 12 caches that are part of this series.  Those that find all twelve of the Whatcom County Cache to Eagle geocaches qualify for a special Boy Scout Patch.  Each Whatcom County geocache will have one of the points of the scout law written on the lid or the log book.  To qualify for the patch please send an email to soilsqueezer@yahoo.com with a list of all twelve caches and the associated point of the scout law, your name and troop number.  I will place your patch in your troop's mailbox at the scout office or send it to you via mail if you are not part of the Mount Baker Council.

There are a few scout projects here check out the additional waypoints to see them.
