Troop 157 embarked on a History of Scouting Trail (HOST Hike), which is a multi-hike series that honors the founders of Scouting America while taking hikers through Scouting-related landmarks and sites in Washington, DC. The James E. West hike is a 5.4-mile hike that took us from the small park near the south side of the Air & Space Museum to the National Museum of the American Indian. It was a cold, blustery day, but our scouts had a blast!
