The Sac Fox Trail

The Sac Fox Thunder Trail is approximately 12 miles long and is considered to contain a moderate degree of difficulty. The trail winds its way throughout the Loud Thunder Forest Preserve, through Loud Thunder Scout Camp, alongside Lake George, and offers breathtaking vistas of the surrounding countryside and the mighty Mississippi River.

Organized trail hiking can be one of the most outstanding phases of the scouting program. Every year scouting units plan for more extended hikes and more trips as a significant part of their outdoor program.

Scouts like to hike and enjoy the recreational features of a hike. Hiking should help them realize a historical association connected with the individual trails and give them a taste of the hardships the early inhabitants of our great nation endured so that we have what we have today.

The Troop 109 Committee extends a warm welcome to all who choose to experience the Sac Fox Trail. We hope you find the Sac Fox a worthwhile experience—one you can recommend to others in your district, in your council, and on all of your Boy Scout adventures. Spread the word!
