The Triple Crown award signifies a scout has successfully completed activities at three high adventure bases:

Florida National High Adventure Sea Base, in the Florida Keys, which involves sailing, snorkeling and other activities.

Philmont Scout Ranch, near Cimarron, New Mexico, which involves hiking 89 miles over 10 days and scaling 12,441-foot-high Baldy Mountain.

Northern High Adventure Base, in Minnesota, with 101 miles of canoeing and portage, and hiking in areas named "Death Swamp" and "Heartbreak."

The three scouts accomplished their feat over a two-year period.

Bobby has completed the adventure base circuit twice, previously with his older brother George.
