Day Fifteen & Sixteen: Up Hill, Both Ways

Yesterday morning, Rosie and I woke up in a cloud. It was complete fog, and it misted till noon. So, naturally, we read books in our tent till noon, then we started hiking. We ran into a dad with three little boys, who was a tad bit lost. Rosie pointed him in the right direction. Apparently, his mother-in-law had ditched him on the trail. The tough little boys were on a long hike back to the car. We found an awesome campsite near a lake. It had a fireplace and handcrafted stone chairs.

Today, Rosie and I found a long-cut (aka we took a wrong turn). It was a painful 2,000 foot elevation gain to correct the situation. Now, we're camped on a ridge enjoying our cozy sleeping bags. It's been chilly!

Merit Badges:

- actually sleeping in our sleeping bags
