We only heard from Maxwell once about 7 or so days into the trek. He said everyone was making it fine and getting along. Can’t ask for more than that!
I think the last day of hiking was the longest and hardest – but they reached some cool peak and the views were worth it!
They stayed a night at base camp after the trek before traveling back to Denver to fly home.
They finally made it home about 9pm on July 4th! We had quite the welcoming crew waiting for them!
I am incredibly proud of every one of these boys. I hope they realize what an accomplishment this trek was.
I am continually grateful for Boy Scouts and the leadership, independence, responsibility, and – most importantly – friendships it has developed! Well done boys!
What a wonderful experience! One that he will remember the rest of his life!
So proud of our almost Eagle Scout!
Well done, Maxwell! Excited for you seeing the world and soon becoming an Eagle. We’re proud of you and your friends for your leadership and commitment.
