Canoe Trip at Russell's Farm

We'll be staying on Jim Russell's farm out west of Raccoon Lake. He has about 100 acres of land for camping, fishing, boating (we're bring canoes), and hiking.

This is an excellent time for scouts to work on lashings, camp gadgets, water activities, and all around enjoyment of the outdoors without the many restrictions we have at state and federal parks.

DIRECTIONS - Drive time is 50 minutes from The Scout Hut

1. Head west on US-36 to IN-59 (about 1.5 miles past Raccoon Lake).
2. Turn south (left) on IN-59 and go approx 4.5 miles to his driveway which is across from county road 500s.
3. Turn east (left) into his curving driveway and follow it all the way back (around several fields) to our camp site (you should see the troop trailer).
