I found an old post card from my uncle to his mother that told about this camping trip. It was mailed from Greenfield, NH but I don't know if that is where these pictures were taken or not. The card was dated 1914. My father was a boy scout--Ernest V. Page. I think his older brother Ivo C. Page was the scout master.
