Venture Out Women's Backpacking Trip 2008

| Ten women (and a surprise extra) donned packs laddened with needed items and laced up hiking boots to venture forth on the trails of Pictured Rocks National Shoreline. A challenging hike of 20 miles was accomplished in the three days from July 28 - 31. Setting up camp each night, enjoying the forests and the lake shore, chasing a rambunctious raccoon all were part of the fun. We salute Deborah, Donna, Stacey, Denise, Trista, Julie, Linda, Betty, Lynn and Jane for joining together for this adventure. Keep the faith and keep those memories. | |||||

| The ladies demonstrate eating food with one cup and a spoon. | Pumping water from beautiful Lake Superior. | ||||

| Those rest stops were very important to this group. | A medley of numbers were enjoyed as the sun set on the big waters. | ||||
|
|
|
||||
| The best part of our days--watching the sun set. | This was a perfect spot for a bear--since we just saw his dung. | ||||
|
|
|
||||
| Making our way through the ferns, on trails full of flora. | Over the bridge we go to our camp site. | ||||
| |
|
||||
| A lovely, cold dip in the lake is just what a packer needs. | There is nothing like the views on these scenic hikes. | ||||

| It was a bit rough climbing these stairs but we did it. | Lynn and Jane show off their cooking on their new Jetboils. | ||||
| As every woman knows, fashionably dressed on the trail is SO important. | |||||

|
|
||||
| Whether resting on the trail or stopping at night, those moments are oh so nice. | |||||
