On May 5-7, 2006, boys from Troop72.com of the Boy Scouts of America spent another great weekend backpacking. This was their second trek in Governor Knowles State Forest, which features 17 miles of backcountry trails along the east side of the St. Croix River, which divides Minnesota and Wisconsin, between Taylor's Falls, MN and Granstburg, WI. We backpacked about eight miles this time, from "County O Landing" to the southern tip of the trail. - Tom Arneberg (toma@troop72.com)
