Mount Monadnock - Around the first weekend of November, Troop 146 comes a knocking...Mt Monadnock'ing, that is. This year 22 brave scouts and adults traveled to Jaffrey, New Hampshire to test out their camping gear in below freezing temperatures and hike one of the most traveled paths in New England. On a clear day, you can see more than just fall foliage, but buildings in Boston (70 miles) and Mt Washington (200+ miles). Wowz'ahs!!

Heading into the fall Troop 146 will be holding both in-person & virtual meetings, while still observing safety best practices. See calendar for more details. Scout leaders will continue to monitor and re-evaluate the COVID-19 pandemic situation, and will keep parents and scouts informed of troop activities.
Each fall members of Troop 146 sets their sites towards New Hampshire. Mount Monadnock has become a tradition for 146 and can be enjoyed by both old and new scouts. In a little over a couple hours scouts can hike to the summit and experience nature at its best. On a clear day hikers can see the skyline of Boston and Mount Washington.
