Troop 93 spent a chilly weekend outdoor camping at White Pines State Park located in Mt. Morris, IL. White Pines state park is located in the heart of the Rock River valley, the 385-acre White Pines Forest State Park is the south boundary of the historic Chicago-Iowa Trail. The park is known for magnificent trees, cliffs, as well as the Spring and Pine creeks passing through the property. While camping at White Pines hiking and exploring are normally the focus giving the scouts lots of time to enjoy nature.
With a weekend high of 39 degrees, a low of 34 degrees, and rain scattered throughout the weekend the troop was challenged in their preparedness. The cold weather made the perfect time for chili cooked over the campfire.
