The Troop 64 Canoe Trip Page

Last century Troop 64 of Trumbull, Connecticut, USA had a tradition of taking the entire troop on a seven day wilderness canoe trip. It started as a high-adventure trek for older scouts. They would return with tales of a vast outdoor world of lakes that seemed endless. Woods that stretched across a continent. Trails that might lead to the ends of the earth. The canoe trips were conducted in the summer and the sites were either Canada or Maine. Below is a collection of the trips taken from the 1950's to the mid 1980's.
