You must enjoy camping more than hiking.....definitely leisurely....I can't sit in camp that long in evenings....I guess I have ADD!!![emoji16].

We have a late start the first day with 2 hours of driving. Winter days are short and dark at 5:30 pm. Hiking from camp/water to next camp/water. We spend a lot of time taking pictures. Wandering on side trails and pretty much goofing off. We check out animal markings on the trail and get caught up in the moment.
