At the end of June, Adam's scout trip had a 3-day camp-out scheduled for Apache Lake. With all the other activities and vacations tossed into the mix, it eventually became a day outing. The scouts left early in the morning, but since Dan was coming off of 24-hour call at the hospital, he wasn't able to leave until a few hours later.
Bryce went along to help with the boat and took his friend, Austin. They drove the Apache Trail and went fearlesslly down the infamous Fish Creek Hill.
Apache Lake is on the Salt River chain of lakes, but is not as easily accessible as the others, and therefore is not as crowded. It is a beautiful lake.

Of course the scouts found a spot for cliff jumping - or in this case ledge jumping. Here is Adam checking out the situation.
Brother Lamoreaux is an amazing scoutmaster as are his assistants. This is Brother Lamoreaux's boat with Brother Rojas on the back and several scouts (including Adam - in the middle) on the water weinee.
Bryce has had lots of practice this summer on the wakeboard. He caught some air in this shot.
Touching the water.
More air with Brother Lamoreaux and the scouts hot on his trail.

Bryce out in the water giving instructions to Adam on how to wakeboard. Was Adam listening? Adam has made great progress in water sports. He used to only ride in the boat and now he will try almost anything. With a little more practice, he will be a solid wakeboarder.
Dan even got a turn and took his trusty ski down the lake for a run.

A military helicopter flew by and got everyone's attention.

Everybody's favorite - tubing! Left to right Austin, Tucker, Tyler, Carlos and Bryce.
Woo-hoo!! Dan can give the tubes a wild ride.
A spectacular crash. It's not very often that the big tubes turns over. What a ride.
A memorable scout trip to Apache Lake.

As I've said before it's always a blast at the lake with the Dahls!
