We trained on the river for 6 days, all paddle boats, and it was really good. Really fun. But very cold. We spent 5 days backpacking this week, and that was not as fun. They blindfold us, send us out in groups of 4 into the wilderness, and we have to figure out where we are and how to get to the coordinates that they gave us. But my group was none of my good buddies, so that was really hard and not very fun. But then on the second day we all met up, so it was especially good to see all of my second-year girls again, and my good guy friends. We did some more things, but it's over now. Praise God.
I start commercial trips on Tuesday, so I'm a little nervous about that, but it should be good. The water is starting to get big. It's cranking. The snow-pack is ridiculous this year, so hopefully it'll be a continuous high-water year, as opposed to last year, where it got HUGE for a week, then was just mediocre the rest of the summer. But we shall see.
None of those words were interesting.
