Boy Scout Forums: John Muir Trail patch "South Lake to Onion Valley"

Message

        Okay, so I'm a complete newbie at all this.

I have been in Scouting as a Tiger Den Leader for all of one year.  However, my husband was an avid Scouter in his youth, and has been guiding me in my introduction to this wonderful (and complex!) new world.

In his Californian youth, my husband hiked large portions of the John Muir Trail.  He has patches on his backpack for the sections that he hiked -- but he is missing the patch for the section "South Lake to Onion Valley".  

I would love to get this patch for him as a surprise, but I can't find a source for it.  It's just a rectangle with the words, about three inches long by one inch high -- the other patches in the set are solid color background with contrasting color lettering, but I don't know what color this patch would be.

Is this forum a good place to look for this?  Or where would I try?

Thanks for any help you can give!

	I have just begun looking for John Muir Trail patches and would like to know if you have had any success in your search. Could you give me advice on where I might find them? I will let you know if I learn anything about where to buy them. Hope you have stuck with the Cub Scout program and are now "WebeloMom". Bob W
