Boy Scouts Take
Hike To Clifton
The Wolf Troop of the Boy Scouts
of Skagway took a hike Friday
with their leaders. They started at
one o'clock from the Social Centre
with nine scouts and the Scoutmas
ter. At the two mile post they were
joined by the patrol leader and the
assistant patrol leader and from
that on they made good time until
they reached Clifton. The trip up
was made in two hours and fifteen
minutes, and would have been made
in shorter time except for the snow
just beyony Boulder, and from Rocky
Point on. Starting back at 3:50 the
first contingent reached the shops
at 0:20 but the .Master and Patrol
leader took a car and went back to
meet some of the boys who were de
layed 011 account of one or two who
were pretty well fagged. They met
them at the four mile post coming
in slowly but in good condition.
The outstanding feature of the
stay at Clifton was the marked hos
pitality ol" Mrs. Dahline. Nothing
was too good for the boys in the es
timation of this good lady, and the
way the scouts made away with food
and drink would indicate that the
trip had been hard or that they had
not iiad anything to oat since last
Sunday. Altogether it was a fine
trip and the boys appeared to have
an excellent time.
