The car problems that caused the girls to have to stop and ask for help numerous times on their way up to the pass seemed to even themselves out by the time they reached their destination..
The next issue they faced was that Laura's hiking shoes which hadn't been used for a while- fell apart and the girls had to tape the soles back on!! Thankfully a park ranger set them up with adhesive!
Laura is amazing.. instead of complaining, she hiked all the way into their camping area with a full pack, miles and miles the next day on an extensive hike.. and back to the car again with taped on soles.. not complaining.
The boys had teased our girls that they were bringing everything but the kitchen sink! All the girls had some pretty heavy packs to haul in 5 miles to their camping area..
And they're off!
They finally reached their destination and were able to set up their 2 man tent that Ryan had loaned them
A room with a view!
Everyone gets a much-needed back rub!
It ended up pretty chilly- and most of the girls had only brought a sweatshirt
