Day 336: Backpacking Trip - Day 1

2008.06.23



I'd just like to point out his watch... that Dick Tracy watch... thing was awesome.


And so it begins...





Proof that I was there.

Holy gorgeous.


Poor Regner had a friggin' root canal the morning we left...


Best shot ever.

SNOW!





We had to forge the river.




Andre kept pulling more clothes out of his backpack ...

Moments before an almost catastrophic explosion from Laun's camp stove.

Just gotta' poke the fire.

HEY!!! We're camping!

Obligatory 'Andre looks special Ed. shot'

Well, the much awaited Studio Team backpacking trip is upon us.

We went up into an area north of Boise, near a town called Stanley. The region of forest we were in was called the "Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness" or something ominous and foreboding like that. Very friendly.

I didn't know this until we were there, but apparently the area of forest we were trekking through was actually victim to a forest fire some 7 or 8 years ago... it's actually really pretty up there. Very strange how nature burns itself to the ground, then slowly rebuilds and reclaims all that ground. Very very cool.

sallybranwyn #16 looks very Fellowship of the Ring-y. And the guy's watch inexplicably makes me want to say "Go, go gadget, CAMP!"
