Black Jack Trail is an experience where the history of Quivira Scout Ranch is delved into and some backpacking is done into the heart of The Ranch leaving all big, fancy equipment behind. This is as opportunity for your Unit to go out with a minimum of equipment, have maximum fun, and use The Ranch to its fullest. There are endless program opportunities on our own Council Camp, and we urge every Unit to take advantage of them.
Border Patrol is one of the oldest activities at QSR. Hiking around the QSR border or Fence line a self-motivation. This can be a day hike, or one can make it an overnighter.
