Abbreviated Backpacking Trip

Well we tried to go backpacking over Spring break, but the weather did not cooperate. This is a picture of Sean after the group decided to cut the trip short, after we woke up to 36 degree temperatures and Rain Showers. But we did have a half a day of Hiking without backs and a good night at Big Meadows Campground.












Here is a picture from our hike on Thursday afternoon. You will notice that Spring had not sprung at 3000 ft. There were no leave or blossoms on the trees yet. And there were no herds of deer in Bid Meadow, like there is usually. On this day temperatures were in the high 50's and sunny, and there were no bugs out to bite you. Too bad those conditions did not persist.
