200710-Gourmet Backpack. This was the annual gourmet backpack of the Harvey broome group of the Sierra Club. The destination was about 3 miles up the North Fork of Citico Creek. As usual, we had a number of culinary delights, many of which are pictured herein. Coupled with the outstandingly beautiful North Fork (even at very low water levels), this was another very memorable trip.
Nine hikers set out for the Maroon Bells wilderness of Colorado. We planned an 8-day backpack starting at Maroon Lake and ending at the Maroon-Snowmass trailhead. Due to illness, 4 of the hikers had to vary from the original plan, but still spent 6 nights in the wilderness, and we were all together for 5 of the 8 days. We encountered more rain than expected, but still had a great trip, reaching elevations in excess of 12,000 feet on 5 of the 8 days.
Five hikers made this late July backpack to Dolly sods, West Virginia, in spite of predicted 60% rain chance for the weekend. We hiked for three days (two nights), and did encounter some rain, but overall we had decent weather and a great trip. This was a Harvey Broome Group trip.
Wildflowers were the objective of this Harvey Broome Group (Sierra Club) walk in the Norris Dam area. The lower portions of the trail gave us lots of flowers to view.
This was a Harvey Broome Group (Sierra Club) outing to the Stone Mountain trail in Virginia. The trail itself turned out to be very interesting, with some dramatic scenery and interesting terrain. Finding water was a bit of a problem due to a recent drought in the area, but we managed OK.
This was my fourth outing to Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge in South Georgia. By going in winter, we avoid insects and see the gators when they are relatively lethargic. But on this trip we saw lots of them! We also other wildlife, including sandhill cranes and otters. Nights were cool, and days were great.
These pictures are from hikes, backpacks, and other outings.

Hogan,
Thanks for the suggestion -- I'll start doing it!

We had a very nice campfire, and it was just cool enough to appreciate it. We stayed up until 11 pm, which is quite late for this group!

A June backpack to Newton Bald in the GSMNP is one way to stay cool, and we did. This was a Harvey Broome Group (Sierra Club) backpack.
