Cubs will be walking the Cascade Trail.


Rain is expected the preceeding weekend, and we may catch the taik of a shower on the evening.

The activity will go ahead in rainy weather.

Parents are encouraged to join us for the stroll. The track is mostly flat, with just a few metal stairs at the end near the waterfall.

Please bring:

- walking shoes / gumboots that are okay to become muddy (potentially)
- small backpack (to carry water)
- long pants tucked into socks (if you wish to minimise chance of a leech getting you)
- wear scout shirt + scarf
- deet (rub on ankle of shoes) or repelant to help with any bugs/leeches
- towel (if you plan on getting feet wet)
- snack (if you wish to have a snack around the waterfall)
- raincoat (preferably a breathable one else you might get sweaty)
- umbrella
- drink bottle

Leaders will carry a small field first aid kit.

Note that at this Scout activity youth cannot officially swim (due to leaders not holding the minimum qualification for water rescues).
