Pack 846 hike of the month
Ringwood Manor
May 18th (Sunday)
Meet @ 9:00AM
This month's hike is a beautiful stroll in the park through Ringwood Manor, in Ringwood. This super easy 3 mile hike starts off with a nice wide gravel path before taking a scenic walk through the woods. We will have time at the end of the hike to walk around the manicured Ringwood Manor grounds, and the scouts can run around on the expansive grass field. There is plenty of parking next to the manor at 1304 Sloatsburg Road, Ringwood NJ 07456. Feel free to bring snacks if you want to let the scouts play after the hike!

Whether or not you are coming camping with the Pack, you are still more than welcome to join us on the Scout Hike!

We will start our hike in the middle of the parade field at 3:00pm.

Spring Camping at Allamuchy

No big deal we are still going to have great fun. We are booked at sites 12 A & B and are currently looking to book sessions of archery and BB's. I will let you know as soon as its confirmed. Also plan on a great hike and fun at our campfire program. Most importantly, the scouts will have some unstructured time to explore the outdoors.

Tourne Park
June 8th (Sunday)
A short hike, but a steep climb! The Tourne in Boonton boasts great views from the peak, but it's a 341 foot elevation gain, uphill battle to get there! (It's not that bad...) We're going to do roughly a 2 mile loop up to the Tourne Peak, and then down through the well-cared-for gardens of Tourne Park. Getting to the parking area can be challenging, as it doesn't have an address. I recommend that you type in McCaffrey Lane, Denville, and enter the park through the Norris Road entrance. Park in the second lot near the playground, as shown in the picture below.
