20 Mile Ohlone Wilderness Hike

In April 1997 the Troop made a 20 mile hike from Sunol to Del Valle through the Ohlone Wilderness with a one-night camp out en route. This is a long and grueling hike for experienced backpackers. Our scouts ranged in age from 12 to 14 and did a commendable job. Those who completed the hike earned the Ohlone Wilderness Hike Patch shown above.

The patch shows the elevation changes experienced on this hike. Note the brown colored hills--these are a representation of the elevation changes as going from West to East (left to right).
