For 8 months Jess has been planning a 3 day, 30km hike from Govett’s Leap to Mt Victoria in the Blue Mountains and this weekend she and 4 other scouts completed it with flying colours. The intrepid scouts who joined Jess were:
Kathryn S
Lachy R
Alex Y
Duncan C
This hike is the highest level journey for a scout and requires the scout to plan it, contact necessary authorities, lead it independently (adults only check on them once or twice a day) set emergency exit routes and complete a journey log to be assessed in a weeks time. They carried all their own gear and had to boil their water/use purification tablets.
They managed to complete the final 700m climb out of the valley to arrive at Mt Victoria 1 minute after the agreed time of 11am. Excellent work Jess and the whole team. Good luck with the log completion.
More photos to come soon
Good work guys, sorry I was late with the pick up!
Well done to all of you, especially Kathryn I’m really proud of you. Life is a journey so enjoy every step!!
