Backpacking Adventures

I have started backpacking this summer. There is a group in Albuquerque that plans trips at least once every month during the season. I have been on three trips so far and heading to Colorado Labor day weekend for a 3-day hike. It has been a blast! Certainly interesting going on a trip with people one has never met. The last trip we went to San Pedro Parks and it poured rain. Some people decided to camp where we stopped to formulate a plan about the rain and 5 of us continued to the campsite. We then continued for another 3 miles for a day hike and saw lots of elk.
