Our patrol had to use all their navigational skills to complete this weekends MPC in very challenging conditions. We are very proud of their achievement! Many thanks to the staff and our scouters for making adventures like this possible.

Well-deserved badges

Coffee in the morning - essential!

Last weekend's Connaught MPC was a true baptism by fire for our gang. A tough route (that steep and long ascent of Croaghan ...) and challenging weather conditions (low temperatures, fog, rain, strong winds) thrown in for good measure.

A lot of preparation is needed before going to a Mountain Pursuit Challenge: studying maps, preparing route cards, food, and gear, ... Our patrol is now ready for Achill Island ready after all that hard work. Pray for good weather. 🤞
