The plan was to hike the entire Gerard Trail in Oil Creek state park.

HOW HARD COULD IT BE?

Well, a lot more climbing than I counted on. And oops no leaves for shade. Stupid sunny days. Boo. 18 of the 36 miles still feels pretty good, though. Still learning what I can do and how everything works.

Mile, mile and a half.....?

Not a total loss, though. First stealth camp a-HAH!

Stealth-ish. Tyvek doesn't come in camo.
