Troop 474 Backpacking Equipment
The Troop has recently purchased some good quality backpack equipment for the Troop members to use. The idea is to allow members to experience backpacking with good equipment prior to the parents purchasing items that cost a lot of money. The Troop has, in the past, received donations of used backpack and camping equipment. After going over these items and refurbishing the useable items, they will also be added to the loaner equipment list.
(3) medium youth sized backpacks
(4) 2 man backpacking tents with rain fly. (Good 3 season tents)
(3) youth (5’6”) sleeping bags. (Good quality 20 degree rated)
