Beginner Friendly Overnight Backpacking trip for Mother’s Day Weekend
Details
NEW PEOPLE WELCOME!!!
This is a beginner friendly backpacking trip.
This overnight backpacking trip is a 5 mile into camp, 5 miles out and back to our cars the next morning. Elevation is less than 1000 feet. There is a water source to filter water, space for tents and hammocks plus a roomy shelter. It has a privy and bear pole. We can gather wood for a fire.
If you are new to backpacking and do not have all your gear reach out to your hosts, we all have gear to lend if needed.
I am using Mother’s Day weekend as the perfect opportunity to guilt my daughter into going out and backpacking with me 😊.
For those more willing to haul a little extra- please bring a beverage or small snack to share. Or a fire log. That would be awesome!
Chatter around the campfire at the end of the day with some great conversation and some food and drink is the perfect way to end the night.
