A Hike in the Chilterns  

Beavers, Cubs and Scouts hiked 9 miles around the Chilterns. Superb weather, thanks to the presence of Michael Ford. Superb scenery thanks to the Chilterns. We visited some of the usual spots but also tried out some new bits. The infamous Ditch fooled no one, it wasn't wet enough. Slush puppies were a favourite from the Sweet shop in West Wycombe. 9 miles completed and we didn't miss the train this time. Click on the photo to look at the Facebook album.
