Catalina Island Backpacking – July 2025

Nine scouts went to Catalina Island as part of our end-of-year trip in July 2025. It was a high-adventure outing for the Venture Patrol, and scouts prepared for it for several weeks. The group first had to drive to LA, then take a boat to the island. They hiked to their first campsite, stayed the night, then hiked to the next one. They had lots of fun swimming, and on the way home, they stopped at an aquarium. We’re glad to have had this outing!
