Woods Walker
The Wood is cut, The Bacon is cooked, Now it’s tim
The plan was simple. I have not bivy/tarp camped during a storm in a few years. Basic kit. Ridgerest closed cell pad, 10x8 tarp, sleeping bag, USGI Gortex bivy. Also wanted to do a video and pics of my pulk sled for the forums. Two birds one stone. Do the video and pics of the pulk sled then spend the night. So I hit the trail with the pulk. Setup my shelter then finished the pulk video. Then it all went to hell in a hand basket. The wind picked up. The snow turned heavy and wet. The trees bent way over. Then I had an epiphany..... I must get out... As in right now!!! So packed it all up and did the short 1.5 miles to the trail head. Trees branches, some widow maker class where coming down. Made it out and had an awful ride back. Now it appears the power is ready to go out as it's blinking so will post these pics right now.
So anyone else ever run for their lives out of the woods?
