This past weekend we got up early about 5am to go to the grocery store to pick up our food for the weekend! We packed everything is our packs and headed to pick up our rental tent, sleeping bag and pad, which we also had to get onto our already heavy packs. We soon got on a bus to take us to a jeep, the jeep then took us about half way up the mountain. We then got out to get ready for the hike. When we had to crawl under barbed wire I knew we were in for quite an adventure! We hiked about 2 miles to the first campground. Some of us decided to take a further trip to a different campground. So our hike continued. We camped with cows surrounding our tent. Once our tents were all up we went to the hot springs! It was so amazing, it was like one big hot bath. When we got out it was FREEZING. So we started a fire at our campground to start our dinner for champs, hot dogs, tuna, and chips. After dinner the sun sank behind the mountains very quickly. We stayed up until what felt like the middle of the night. We all crawled into our sleeping bags, and realized it was just after 8. It had been a long day though! We woke up early to pack up and get going for the day. It was so amazing to wake up on the side of a cliff. Our tent was about 1 foot or 2 away from the edge of a cliff.
