Winter Camping at Wild River State Park, February 2006

Trip Leaders: Ross Mitchell, Nick the Red

David and Kevin, in the trunk.Apparently it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Tending the fire. Keeping warm.


Pineapple in two mouths at once. Juliet and Sarah are enjoying this immensely.


Sarah's nice and cozy in the snow shelter.

Peace. Dylan's ready for bed.

The group is awake, making breakfast, taking down camp. Ross, tucked into two sleeping bags, sleeps on until 11AM, oblivious.

Fed up with the napping leader, David prepares to pounce.

This is what Sodexho gives you for winter camping trips, apparently. It didn't freeze overnight in 10 F weather... this was deemed unnatural.

A snowshelter halfway to completion

Up a tree. Nice spot, Dave.
