Bag Night Challenge 2019

Unfortunately, thunderstorms (graupel, heavy rain and some very close lightning strikes) prevented us from getting up to the Boulderfield on Sunday, so I didn't get the chance to try and climb Longs Peak on Monday morning, but there was snow and ice on the route Monday morning that turned most people back at the Keyhole. Maybe next year...

I spent a smoky night in Ingram Basin above Telluride on Friday so I could climb Ajax Peak on Saturday morning. All the smoke made for a colorful sunset, though...

Deploying the flood lights on my camper for some night Kubb at Bear Lake! The potato cannon came out after this and my Kubb set paid the price.

We went on an easy overnighter into the Holy Cross Wilderness this weekend. Probably our last backpacking trip into the mountains this year. Now it's time to get back to exploring the Colorado Plateau!

Took my girl on her first bikepack trip. I have been begging her to go with me since I started bikepacking. She refused. Some of you will remember her first backpack trip into Havasupai she swore after that trip she would never do anything like that again. So imagine my surprise when she said she wanted to try bikepacking now. Momma was [emoji15] who body snatched my kid.

I jumped on it. We only did 20 miles but on a rented bike and a saddle that was not mine that was far enough. I wanted to try the Salsa Cutthroat. She road the Fargo. OMG we had a ball riding farm roads in Idaho. Nothing flat about those roads. We ended at Green Canyon Hot Springs and soaked. She works for Fitzgerald's in Idaho Falls an awesome bike shop. This was a shop ride.

When we were done she said she couldn't wait until next spring/summer when we could plan some more trips. My heart warmed. [emoji7]

Clay and Laurel, Braydan, and Sarah there were more in the trip. I just didn't do many photos.

So this little guy Maverick followed us 10 miles back to the cars. Such a good pup. We loaded him into Braydan's car and took him back to the hot spring. I kinda fell in love with him. If I had a place for a dog like him...he might have just followed me home.

Anyway I am probably done for the year.

Not the 40+ some odd nights I got last year. Been too wrapped up in life to get out. I will remedy this next year.

Time for a 2019 UPDATE

65 Backpacking Bag Nights as of May 2019.
80 Backyard Cowboy Camping Bag Nights.

Pulled a 25 day backpacking trip in Cohutta/Big Frog Wilderness with some pertinent pics---

82453
Cohutta trip starts with my 90 lb pack on a 5 mile trek into Big Frog wilderness---and run into some Frog dayhikers, some of whom I know.

82454
Passing thru the Big Frog I cross Jacks River and set up at the Rough Ridge trailhead on Rough Ridge Creek.

82455
Dinner time on the Jacks. Some wild violets augment the meal.

82456
After many days I reach Conasauga River and cross to go north on the Hickory Creek trail.

82457
I leave Conasauga and take Hickory Creek/Cowpen/Hickory Ridge back to Jacks River and pull this tricky crossing down the rocks and across.

82458
A couple nights camping on the Jacks during a rainstorm and some guys have to cross to get out. Thankfully I'm on the right side of the river for escape.

82459
I pull away from the Jacks and climb up to Big Frog Mt where I use the lid off my McHale pack to pull a 4 liter water run.

82460
And so on Day 24 the trip ends by leaving Big Frog and tooling to Ocoee River and my shuttle ride out.
 
UPDATE to October 1, 2019

107 Backpacking Bag Nights.
155 Backyard Cowboy Camping Bag Nights.

In June and August/September I pull two more backpacking trips of 21 days each---and both into the Citico Creek wilderness of TN/NC. This catches me up to October 1st before any Autumn trips.

82461
Coming across the North Fork Citico footbridge---hornet nest on the bridge---got stung of course.

82462
Got caught in a windstorm in Glenn Gap on Fodderstack Ridge and a tree limb ripped my beloved Hilleberg tent. Pulled out my pre-threaded needle and sewed it up fast---then coated in McNett's silnet sealer.

82463
I cross Slickrock Creek in NC and go up Big Fat trail where I find Johnny hanging out after a big meal. We talk.

82464
I leave Slickrock Creek and climb 3,000 feet in a terrible hump and reach Haoe Peak at 5,240 feet.

82465
Heading down the Brush Mt trail---the "hardest" trail in the Citico. My fave reststop rock.

82466
Mark aka Rasputen---the only backpacker I see in 21 days.

82467
Hanging out on North Fork Citico Creek.

SECOND TRIP---This one is August into September and catches me up to October 1st.

82468
I return to the North Fork and run into some Ranger kids studying the trail and doing alittle Silky saw trailwork.

82469
Watching the Ranger kids skirt around two North Fork Creek crossings by taking this rock face detour.

82470
I pull 68 creek crossings on this trip and this is one of them.

82472
On South Fork Creek I nearly step on South Fork Jimmy and we talk and he's a happy guy. The plant is Partridge Berry aka Squaw Vine.

82473
The South Fork/North Fork humps takes me up about 3,200 feet to Hangover Mt for some views and pics. Looking off into the Smokies.

82474
You might see a black bear or a wild pig or a bobcat or a skunk or a raccoon but the rarest mammal of all? The solo woman backpacker. She's camping atop Hangover Mt.

82475
I leave the high ground and descend the 9 mile South Fork trail and run into Johnny hanging out by the trail. So ends a great series of trips.
 
@Tipi Walter You sure manage to find the rattlesnakes, do you peek under all the bushes? :)

I've never seen one and I'm not sad about it, happy to just walk right by and never notice them :)
 
I see the Pit Vipers (Pit Toilets??) everywhere I go---into Pisgah NF, Bald River/Upper Bald wilderness, Citico, Slickrock etc you name it.

If you spend enough time hiking in the mountains of TN and cover alot of acreage in trails you're bound to see the guys. Most especially during the hottest months of the year---the time when most backpackers stay home in air conditioning.
 
Now thought would post to this thread again. In July I posted to this thread and guess time to do so again. Am continuing to just live my simple lifestyle here around Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It has become of those rare years when I worked all summer. Have lived on my bike camping out all summer. I would work during the day, but then go to a place nearby in the woods somewhere late in the day and sleep at night. Here would just spread out a tarp, my sleeping bag and few stuff on top for the night. Then pack up and go about the day's doing starting at first light. Now with living on my bike, have lived with only a minimum of stuff. Love Living Without So Much Stuff!!! Actually it has been a great summer with living without so much stuff, and sleeping out on about a every night basis. It has been Great! Would recommend this to everybody in learning to live without. Also the sunsets and sunrises this past summer season has been Great! Also will add, have continue to go all summer without any camera so no photos for this post.

There have been a few nights where have had to retreat to a local motel or such. Plus there were two weeks which I took in late April being down in Zion NP, and then recently last week with being at Rabbitstick which is a Primitive Skills Gathering held every September near Rexburg. Have had so far near a total of
160 days. This is minus a few nights where I had to stay in a motel room locally. Again it has been Great!!! There is still so much out there including right nearby where many of us live. Get Out and Enjoy Life and the Wilderness! Wishing Everyone the Best!
 
Kmatjhwy---I hear what you're saying. Once you get to living a "primitive" type lifestyle it'll always be a part of your psyche. I spent 21 years living in a ridgetop Tipi in North Carolina (1980-2001) and cut a 1 mile trail up to the thing on 40 acres of land with a trail elevation gain of about a 1,000 feet. Backpacked everything in. Including that blasted 140 lb iron woodstove.

And this tipi was my home base during long periods of backpacking and hitchhiking trips.

Tipi Walter, loved the photo! Thanks for posting! Yes do soooo agree with you. Gosh, how wonderful for you to live like this, and for 21 years. Wow! Good For You! Would love to hear more of this experience that you had for these 21 years. Wishing You the Best!

Just got back from a trip to Mesa Verde and the San Juans. We got the private ranger-guided tour experience at MV. It was so awesome to have the sites all to ourselves and be able to go to areas and sites that the public isn't usually allowed. And then to top that off a drive through the San Juans. We were a little early for great color, but we still found some nice pockets.
