The first lake I tried was Alpine Lake (see pervious post for picture) – [...] As promised, here are a few pictures from my latest adventure – a 20 mile walk from Redfish Lake to Grandjean over the Sawtooth Mountains. Even though I'm posting this picture first, it was actually taken at the end of the trip…[@more@] We left on our adventure right after [...] By the time you read this, I will be about 10 miles into the backcountry of the Sawtooth Wilderness. The crazy thing is that I will also have about 10 more miles of trail ahead of me before the return to civilization.

As I drove along the winding road through the mountains, I started to get [...] After years of fighting cheap or used backpacks, I finally bit the bullet and brought a "real" backpack. It help that REI was having a huge anniversary sale. I original went into REI to get a travel backpack as I thought that it would fit all my needs. A travel backpack is a [...] |
