just got back from a wonderful weekend of camping! i took nine guys up Rough creek canyon until the road ended. thankfully there was a little stream not far from where we parked the van. we got there about an hour before sundown. we madly and wildly dashed about getting ready for the cold night. (at least most of the guys did, some... i am not sure what they were doing :) six of us were in one large shelter while the other four paired off and made their own. about sundown it started to snow, so we quickened our pace. about three hours after starting we were able to hunkier down and make some supper before we headed to bead. with six of us crammed into one shelter we were actually quite warm. thankfully it didn't snow all night, only a nice dusting. for Sabbath we all just split up and explored nature on our own. i saw a ton of tracks, including squire, rabbet, and even bobcat. also saw a wood pecker. great time. sunday night was about the same, warm and cramped :) the thermometer on the van said -6 C in the morning. drove the van down the mountain a ways and went on another hike, then made lunch before heading back in the after noon. it was cold but well worth it. and the view was spectacular!!!!!
