Brandi and I went out for a little hike today. I wanted to scout the woods for sufficiently discreet campsites for my trip. There seem to be good spots all over the place up there, so that shouldn’t be a problem.
The White Deer Creek
We had a sunny day, puntucated with downpours. The trail we were hiking on used to be a forestry road, but it was closed off to car traffic many years ago, and has since become a bit washed out.
A washout on the Dunbar Trail
The far side of that washout might make an ideal spot to put my tent. It’s pretty level, it’s got a cushy combination of grass and moss growing on it, it’s pretty remote, and I can get there on my bike.
The main event, of course, was to try out my mountain cookery rig.
Cooking in the woods is cool.
Everything worked. I am pleased to report that Mountain House Freeze Dried Lasagna is actually quite good. Brandi even says so, and she’s a professional chef.
I’m thinking if the weather permits, I am going to try to do my camping trip next weekend.
