To all who were on this trip....I've uploaded my photos:

Feel free do download any you may want. These are the full-size, uncompressed/unaltered picture files.
Anybody else got photos they'd be willing to share?

I usually just throw all my food in one of the packs compartments. But I like the idea of putting all food in a Zip lock bag to be able to bring it inside the tent during winter camping trips.
I also learned I need a better down jacket. The one I took worked fine, but it was just to damn big. Also learned I need to start training with weight. Once I had my full pack on the back it slowed me down way to much.

I had a great time this past weekend. Thanks to Steve for putting this trip together... to Britt for finding a great place for us to stay on Friday night...to Keifer & Darin for not snoring...and to Cooper for reminding me that I may be fast, but not fast enough. : )
Here are my pictures....there's 27 of them.
