Imagine a day in Powder Horn at Falley

Scout Reservation (FSR). The day dawns on

the native grass prairie preserved for the

enjoyment of

Scouts and Ven-

turers. You may

be lucky enough

to see a big tom

turkey explode

out of the tall

grass

It’s time to get

moving. A quick

shower and you then head for the Mabee

Lodge over a trail that cuts through the his-

tory of the area, from the last ice age to the

frontier trails and the Delaware Indian Res-

ervation. A great breakfast and cheery

cooks greet you to the morning.

What new activity awaits you? Maybe,

shooting sports: archery, pistols, rifles or

black powder. You may use one of the two

climbing towers . Whatever it is, you can

bet that FSR will be prepared to offer you a

Powder Horn adventure on the waterfront,

on the historic Military Trail, on the Lake

Perry mountain bike trail or on Lake Perry

itself.

You may be on the prairie, but as you walk

down the trail at the end of the day, a moun-

tain top experience is realized.
