Fishing in Fontenelle and Backpacking in the Wind Rivers

The boys go fishing at Fontenelle Reservior every year. This year was particularly bounteous! The pictures don't show the water, but I promise they did not dig these fish out of the dirt..haha.


This next batch of picture came from the boys back packing trip to the Wind River Mountain Range (also in Wyoming). Scott, James, Carter, Don, Josh, Isaac, Richard and Ty were all there for a full week. The rest of the Scouts came up midway through the trip. The goal of this trip was to help get the boys their backpacking, camping, fishing and hiking merit badges for Boy Scouts. James hiked the most miles. At the end, the total was somewhere around 70 miles for the week! WOW! Go James! Carter also did an impressive 54 miles!!! They were so tired when they came home...I won't even mention the smell.






There were more leaders than Scouts...HAHA! The grownups were pumped about this trip:)


They hiked to a central campground and then did several different day hikes, a different lake every day. The scenery is AWESOME!
