About the event
This is the Ultimate patrol challenge that honors the men and women prospectors who sought their fortune in the Yukon Gold Rush. With the cooperation of Mother Nature, Camp Mattatuck will be transformed into the wilderness of the Yukon Territory where a person’s skill and knowledge along with adequate gear and supplies are what will gain them fortune or cause for failure.
WEATHER
The Klondike is a rain or shine event. Be prepared for the weather and expected conditions of the day along the trail. Scoutmasters, please ensure all scouts have the proper clothing and footwear.
DELAYED OPENING/CANCELATION
If the state issues a travel ban, or if Connecticut Rivers Council closes camps we would need to delay opening or cancel the Klondike. We will communicate this information via email, text messages and the District Facebook page as soon as possible either Friday night or Saturday morning. Please monitor your devices…
