This month we went to Romero Pools which is located in the Catalina State Park. The last time that I can was with an eleven year old patrol that had a really difficult time doing the hike. I was impressed this time at how well all of the boys handled the hike and the speed that we were able to maintain. What was more impressive was the fact that all of the boys got in the water for a lunch time polar bear. Even though it was lunch time, the water was super super cold. The water source is the packed snow on the top of Mt. Lemmon that has come trickling down the mountain. Needless to say, we didn't do a lot of swimming, just mainly dipping. But it was a nice reward for a 6 mile round trip hike.
