Liam's Trip to Casper 2013 Part I
In August of 2013 Liam met Grandma Stephens in Cheyenne and headed to Casper for hiis first solo trip in Casper with Grandma and Grandpa Stephens
After settling in and getting a good nights sleep we had an early breakfast and headed for Muddy Mountain.
Arriving at our trailhead, we found the raspberries were ripe and had a quick snack before heading up the trail.
We loaded up our packs and headed out. We crossed,creeks meadows and dark rocky forests and the going was tough but Liam kept up and followed the thin winding trail into the wilderness.
We finally reached the Wikiup |
Nice view of the valley below and the beaver ponds
Liam rested up in the hammock while Grandpa fixed lunch
For lunch we had boiled jerky with Ramen Noodles. Liam said the noodles were REALLY good but was hesitant about eating the jerky, so I explained that the jerky was what gave the noodles the gourmet flavor and he would need all that tasteful nutrition to make the trip back down the mountain. He realized that grandpa was right about that boiled jerky and it was pretty good.
