Tucked in the trees on the edge of a wide meadow along the Dungeness River stands a small three-sided shelter called Camp Handy. The shelter, forest, and meadow have been perfect friends on long backpacks and long. Visits for a few hours or a few nights have calming effects on agitated souls. Let Heidi introduce you to a friendship with a rustic shelter and the river it calls home. The friendly camp that serves as a destination, a place to visit on the way through, and a basecamp for further exploration.
This is a teaser for our sixth Mountaineers Backpackers' Pajama Party event - our 2021 series of virtual online photo journeys for Mountaineers backpackers and anyone else who loves to learn about or drool over pictures from the best backpacking routes in our fine state (and nearby)! We're delighted to have Heidi Walker back for more explorations in the Olympics wilderness! Put on your comfy jammies, grab a beverage and snack, and join us from 7 to 8:30 for slides, route info and details on how to plan your own trip! These events are open to the public!
