CLEARFIELD Coed Explorer Post 384, sponsored by the Clearfield police department, recently returned from a 55 mile canoe and backpacking trip into one of Americas greatest wildernesses, the Yellowstone back country. They saw big game in its natural habitat in the heart of Americas greatest wildlife preserve, fished in lakes and streams full of trout, visited geysers and hot springs, and swam in waters heated by the earths core. The coed group consisting of five girls, five boys and four leaders, checked in at Boy Scout Camp Loll, Wyo. on Aug. 10, and were given swim checks and swamped canoes in the cold water of Lake of the Woods. They camped overnight at Camp Loll and left early the next morning for Grant Village where they began a 30 mile canoe trip on Yellowstone Lake to the Southern tip of the South arm of the lake. At this point they met a prearranged group of . hikers who took their canoes out and the coed group continued with a 25 mile hike into Heart Lake and Heart Lake Trailhead. They were picked up Aug. 15 at the Trailhead and transported back to Camp Loll where they enjoyed hot showers, dinner and camped overnight. They returned to Yellowstone National Park the next day and toured the park and gift shops by car and returned home Aug. 17. Associate advisor Norma Allison said, Camping in Grizzily bear country was a little different than the camping we are accustomed to. Every night you had to put your food, soap, toothpaste and the clothes you wore while cooking or eating that evening meal in a bear bag and suspend it above the ground away from camp." Also, we were not allowed to take any deodorant, make-u- p or perfumed items on the trip.
