Freeze out

Christian made it home from the freeze out by 4. They hiked 2 miles (800 feet) in the dark last night (so their eyes could adjust). They stopped several times along the way and each of the leaders shared a spiritual thought.

Christian reported that it was "only cold at night when they slept, other than that the hiking was hot."

His MRE was gross (ravioli) but he ate it because he was hungry. His long johns and all the other cloths he brought (including his brand new boots) were warm and he ended up hiking down the hill without his snow pants.

Besides being a little too tired (and crabby!) all went well and he had a great time. So thankful he gets so many fun opportunities!
