Litter

I was not happy to find this pile of garbage mixed in with the ashes from a fire that somebody had built down at Horseshoe Lake. I got on my gloves, picked up the litter, tossed it in my trash bucket and it got burnt with the rest of camp trash the next day. I wish people weren't such litter bugs.

One year ago tonight, was the day after Primary Day 2020, and I was camping up at Horseshoe Lake, doing remote work during the pandemic, and decided to do a hike up Lows Ledge on the night before my 3-night stay limit expired and I had to move on to a different campsite

Two years ago tonight, was the day after Primary Day 2020, and I was camping up at Horseshoe Lake, doing remote work during the pandemic, and decided to do a hike up Lows Ledge on the night before my 3-night stay limit expired and I had to move on to a different campsite. It was a nice, still night where I met not a single person on the trail, and it was clear and crisp weather with wonderful views of the lands below.
