San Francisco Bay Area Council - Boy Scout Rim Rover Patch The purpose of the RIM OF THE BAY patch program is to encourage hiking and to bring into the lives of our Scouts a “mountain top” experience. There are six Mountains that surround our area that you hike up. When you fin- ish the first mountain you get a patch and a “rocker” with the name of the mountain. Rockers are awarded for each additional hike completed. All of these trips can be ac- complished in a single day. There are camping sites at or near most if your plans include an overnight camp experi- ence. For Boy Scouts,this activity can contribute to the Tenderfoot Rank, the Backpacking, Camping, and Hiking Merit Badges; and Forester, Geologist, Outdoorsman, and Traveler for Webelos. These hikes are not approved for Cub Scout use. Secure (where available) the park folder which shows trails and also gives a short history of the area. ...Try to make your trip a “hike with a purpose” other than the earning of the patch.
