Camping pictures

The trip started with a 1 hr. paddle to Widgeon Slough.

Once we got to our campsite, we went exploring. A short 45 min. hike later, we were at Widgeon Falls. They weren’t so much ‘falls’ … more like big rapids … but pretty nonetheless!
The next morning, we were on our way to our final destination. 5 hrs. of hiking later, we reached Widgeon Lake – which, p.s. is probably the nicest place I’ve ever camped.
The campsite was perfect. There was a massive flat rock which we put our tent and all of our gear onto. At the base of the rock was a fire pit … which we didn’t use, but it would be nice I bet in the winter.
I had a ton of fun, and my new gear worked out perfectly. 
This is a view of our campsite from a distance (you can kind of see the tent poking out).
And you know, it wasn’t even cold. I was wearing my tank top for pretty much the entire time we were there – except for the late evening and early morning.
You had to be careful with the snow, so you didn’t punch through with your boot. I only punched through once, but it was kind of sketchy in places, what with the snow melting and everything.Anyway, I’m a little sad to be back, but we’ll go there again, and we’ll have a lot more camping and hiking to do this year. Besides, tomorrow is the big baseball game! We’re leaving quite early tomorrow morning (probably around 6am) to try to beat the rush to the border.
