Camping plus almost week 25 belly shot

 

We went camping this weekend with Tom, Sharon, and Julie.  I’m so glad we got out of town to enjoy probably the last warm weekend of 2008!  I was really wishy-washy about going but now I’m so glad I decided to go.  We drove up Saturday morning and met the group at their campsite on Walupt Lake in the Goat Rocks Wilderness area.  From the shores of the lake, we could watch osprey dive and catch fish, and the group heard elk bugling on Friday night.  We hiked on Saturday up to the Pacific Crest Trail, near where we usually take an annual backpacking trip.  It’d been a few years since we were in the area so it was great to visit again.  The hike was 9 miles with not an insignificant amount of elevation gain, so I think it may have been a little overambitious for me, but I made it.  I think I can safely say that was my last hike this year, however!  We couldn’t resist the opportunity to take a week 25 belly shot at a PCT trail junction, with Old Snowy in the background, even though it was a day or so too early.
