A few weeks ago I took a solo overnighter to Robber's Roost Canyon down by the Dirty Devil. It seems that I don't get out often enough by myself, so I enjoyed the alone time and the opportunity to get lost in my own thoughts.
Of course, those thoughts ended up in some weird places sometimes, so I thought I would post some of my random musings from my trip.
1. If there's anything I know about rocks, it's that they don't stack themselves.
2. One cairn does not a trail make.
3. I miss my sole.
I got my boots resoled with a different tread pattern, and now I find it hard to "track" myself.
4. I'd give up steaks tomorrow if it meant no more cows in the backcountry.
5. Yes, it's a nice sagebrush flavor, but I think I'll add some Gatorade powder.
6. Oh, now I see why they make tent pole repair sleeves.
7. Is it weird that I'm thinking of things to post on BCP while backpacking?
8. Why does it always take longer to hike in than it does to hike out?
9. No, seriously, I can't stand cows in the backcountry. Is that selfish?
10. I wonder how long I could stay out by myself before it got old?
It was only an overnighter, so I didn't think about THAT much Anyone else enjoy the alone time and have any funny thoughts to share from a solo trip?
