Has anyone ever done the hike from Elk Park flag stop on the Durango and Silverton RR to the Needleton flag stop? Here is a link. https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/colorado/elk-park-to-needleton?mobileMap=false 36 mile point to point. I know it is beautiful because I have ridden the train a few times.

Co-ed Troops might solve it for some but they will cause problems for others. Will every Troop have to be co-ed? Probably. Once you start there is no way back.

We're going to sue." Any bets on how long it will take the BSA to cave on this one?

I took the DEI volunteer training today and it wasn't terrible. Diversity, it is inevitable, even within the same race. Inclusion, of course we include all of our Scouts and Scouters. Pretty much common sense. Equity, I get it to an extent but it can also be used as a crutch. Be a good person. Treat others the way you would like to be treated and I think the world is a better place. The training goes over what any normal, high-functioning human being should already know and be doing. Now, the minute this training or merit badge includes components of CRT all bets are off and I won't to
