The day began with taking Tara back to the trail fairly early in the morning. No rain- hooray!
But the entire rest of the day was getting ready for Confidence Camp. I had to hustle back from dropping off Tara because Doug was coming to make sure we have a driveable lane back to the campsite. Mostly that meant getting rid of autumn olive. (Now, this method is efficient!)
I had a very minimal amount of work that I thought would accomplish what I needed. Doug said, "I'm your equipment guy! If I come over, I'm doing it right."
And he did, of course. He pretty much created a nice clear packed lane.
It continues back through the trees,
and ends up at the open space where we will set up the campsite. Mostly for access to deliver the porta-potty, but I'll need to drive back there to deliver the picnic tables and other gear. We have the use of a four-wheeler for the week which we will use to bring meals out from the house.
A man and his toy.
Then in the afternoon, Cathy and I went out to explore a section of National Forest where the final field exercise of Confidence Camp will be held. I needed to be sure it was going to work well. I'd selected it from a forest map based on some requirements I wanted, and it's not perfect, but it's close by and will do the job. I've already scouted out the other location where we will do a field exercise.
Between going to the woods and walking out to the campsite four times, I walked a fair amount.
Miles walked in 2026: 152.4
Some old roads in the National Forest and out to Confidence Camp four times: 3.5 miles
