013 - Continuing the drive into camp brings us to the Otter Shelter. As I was scanning this picture, with the rock-lined entrance, I couldn't help but think of all of the Scouts who have been lucky enough to have been part of the OSR experience over the years.

 

014 - In 2001 the Council House had been closed and unused for years, and many people predicted it was past the point where it could be repaired and reused. Happily history would prove them wrong.

018 - Looking at the road it's hard to believe this was once a heavily traveled part of camp.

020 - The James E. West Sshelter has been completely rebuilt and features a sleek-looking metal roof.

021 - Gowanus is one of the largest sites in camp, and is located on the Long House Loop near the Teddy Roosevelt shelter.
