Lineham Peak Scout Camp August 12, 2010

This was my summer scout camp for 2010.  We decided to give the boys a little challenge and the group I had I figured was capable.  So we started out to Summit Mt. Lineham.  This is done easiest by going through Rowe Meadow and take the Tamarack Trail all the way to the Lineham Lakes lookout and then heading strait up to Lineham from there.  The descent was exactly the same.  I did this a couple years later and descended down the mountain straight to the south and joined up with the Rowe Lakes trail below Lineham peak.  There is no track for this hike as it is included on the other time I did Lineham peak.
