Heading to the Woods


I've convinced Bethany to head out with me and a group of Boy Scouts for a weekend backpacking trip in the Sipsey Wilderness, which ought to prove to be awesome! We'll be meeting up with part of the scout troop, getting the dogs outside for some much needed trail time, and enjoying the weekend.

It it all goes to plan, it should go something like this
Fri - Hit the trail just after dark. Hike a few miles, find a site, and sleep like a baby.
Sat - Wake. Drink coffee. Hike 10-12 miles, see the sights, find camp, and sleep like a baby.
Sun - Wake. Drink coffee. Hike 2-3 miles, find the car, and head home.

The scouts need 15 miles and 2 consecutive nights in the backcountry to get some of the requirements done. This ought to do it!

Oh, and our weather couldn't be any better: HIGHS mid 50s, LOWS high 30s.

We'll be seeing you when we get back...
