Here's day 3. By now, we had hiked 8+ miles and camped two nights. The weather and scenery were awesome, but the mosquitos were absolutely terrible!
Breakfast in our camp kitchen - oatmeal:

Our campsite:

Jess packed up for the hike back to the van:

Katie:

Megan:

Crossing one of many bridges on our short, two mile hike:

Lots of ferns:

Pretty view from a bridge:

No pics at the van, but boy were we happy to see a pit toilet and a air conditioned seat with no mosquitos!
We picked up pasties from the corner store, then drove to Newberry to Oswald Bear Ranch. It came highly recommended by a friend, but it was really sad to see the bears in these pens.

We threw apples to these juveniles:

This female liked us:

She followed us around for a while!

Then we drove to Tahquamenon Falls! Meg was so happy!

Next you'll have to come do some backpacking here in Colorado where there are less mosquitoes :)
