U-236 please don't bait me
I must not have really described what we are going to do out there. First were going to hike out three and a half miles to the coast with 30 pound backpacks. Next were going to set up camp. Now, I've been out there before and I can assure you that its windy as hell. Then for the next three weeks I'm going to be tearing up board walk and replacing it with gravel. If thats not hard core enough for you then wait till I tell you about the weather.
The Northwest coast is most likely the rainiest part of the United States. For every mile you go inland there is one inch less of rain a year. Also June is the rainiest summer month. That means that if were unlucky there going to be a constant downpour for 20 days while we working tearing up said board walk. If were lucky it will rain for maybe 3 days and be damp for the rest of the time. That means its going to be hard to start a fire, and when I climb in my sleeping bag at night its going to be damp and cold. Oh yah, did I mention that because its so far out there the coast guard is going to ferry our food in?
Not to make it sound worse that in is, when you can actually see farther than a mile the coast is a really nice place to be. Also we will have all the proper equipment do deal with that stuff. Except for the clothes, I'm only bringing 5 pairs of everything out there. Yes five pairs of EVERYTHING for an entire month.
