Here are some pictures of my recent backpacking trip. Mom has been dying to see some, so here they are. I didn't take as many as I should have, but it was a long, tiring, and hot hike.

Above and below are views that we woke up to on two different mornings. Beautiful places to camp!!

This is what we called the desert. It was a long, hot hike across this open field without any shade.

Here's the gang after a long day of hiking! Some of us had actually taken a bath in the river. Notice no one is wearing shoes...our feet were sore.

Here is Sturgeon Falls in the morning. We did some swimming here and actually jumped off the rocks on the left side.

The trip was fun and I'm looking forward to next year's trip. If you get a chance to go, I would recommend it.
