Trip
Open Backpack - Ancient Lake
A very easy early-season backpack, with fun optional hike Saturday afternoon. Bonus: Sunday morning easter egg hunt! We will have to carry all our water in, but the trip is so flat and short that the extra weight should not be a concern for anyone. Another bonus: geology discussions.
