Packing permit
After searching thebackpacker.com for a few trips I ran across one to the Grand Canyon in early March. I talked to dad about it and asked if he might like to go on a trip like this. I figured he’d think about it a while, then decline. Much to my surprise he was more than enthused about going so I looked into booking a permit for the trip. I received the information in the mail today and found out that I had been approved! I’m looking forward to going out west and actually hiking within the canyon!
In addition, my trip to Savage Gulf is coming up this weekend and I can barely contain my joy! I packed my gear up Thursday to see if I could get everything to fit inside the pack. I have a bit of space issues, but as I didn’t pack water, fuel, or food yet I thought it would be wise to try and figure those issues out when I do a final pack on Friday morning.
