Back Packing - Silver Lake

I finally got to go on my first over-night back packing trip!!  The only slight problem was the rain.  But there was no way I was turning back.  I LOVED it.... but I do hope the next trip doesn't have so much of the wet stuff.

We started out dry.  That lasted about 20 minutes.

Kamo was a trooper!!  Even though he looked terrible
and smelled worse.  Our tent was on a slight hill so we
kept sliding into him all night.  He didn't seem to mind.

Here's another few minutes with no rain.

Gorgeous!

Another lesson learned:
take fire starter and matches that work

Good morning!

I don't look too worse for the wear.
as long as you don't look too closely.
