1st Camping Trip of The Year!
We finally took our first camping trip this year (I know the camping season is about over). Just too many things happened this year to get out more.
We went to central Idaho, East of Sun Valley for our trip. We stayed in a campground called Phi Kappa which is in the Challis National Forest at an elevation of 7500 feet. The days were sunny with highs around 65 and the night time lows 23 to 34. Stayed 7 days and enjoyed every minute. Did some grouse hunting, a lot of fishing, hiking and some relaxing. We saw moose, big horn sheep, mountain goats, dear, antelope and a wolf!
This trip was a lot different from other camping trips. Got a cracked windshield on the truck, a screw in the rear tire, furnace on the trailer stopped working the 4th night and the front leaf spring on the trailer snapped in half. Luckily, we were able to drive 160 miles to Boise, Idaho and got all of the repairs done except for the trailer furnace. We made it safely back to California.
In spite of all that happened, it was a fantastic trip to the “boon toolies”! Thought I would share a couple of pictures with everyone.
