Everything you have, clothes, food, and gear is carried on your back. The scouts figured out real quick, you eat the heaviest food first regardless whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or supper. :lol:

Great memories - wish I could go again!

Yes Sir Mel! They pay me to use 4wd or snow toys to get where I need to be. Lots of views and wildlife.

Regards, Jerry

My middle son and a couple of his buddies are "camping" out behind the barn. I went down and helped them get the fire started around an old stump I wanted gone. Come to find out, they didn't need my help. They did a good job getting it going all by themselves.
