Back in high school, I was part of an outdoors group called outers. We used to go out to a similar cabin almost every weekend. I loved it. We would hike in 7 miles to the cabin then spend 2 nights. On the second day we'd practice and perform orienteering quinzee building or similar activities including survival.
This past weekend overnight camp marked a milestone for me. Actually, more than one. But I'll get to that later. I had been wanting to go to a cabin in the woods and spend the night since high school but never got the chance. Until now that is.
That brings me to my second milestone. I grew up snowmobiling. Passionate about it putting on 2000+ miles on my sled every winter. As well as the trail grooming I used to do. Back in 2008, I had been forced so to speak to sell my snowmobile. I hadn't even sat on one since.
Well, one of the other scout leaders out there had an older snowmobile to use along with a newer one. The rest of the scouts hiked in while we rode snowmobiles hauling gear in. I was taken back to a sport I was passionate about and discovered that I can still ride. That I still love to ride. That I miss it. So next year I may have to buy one again. And make use of the summer camp.
And knowing me, I will become involved in the snowmobile club in some form. Hmmmm......[emoji848] They do have 2 br 180s here. [emoji6]
