Without a doubt, the most difficult aspect of my backpacking trip across Washington this last summer (2017) was being away from my wife & son for almost a month. It really hurt to be away. Cell reception was limited at best overall, with no reception for the last 2 weeks. I can't wait to share these types of experiences with my kids. Until then, this little video will have to suffice for my son, Trekker. ~1 photo for every mile of trail. Pardon the cliche song, it was stuck in my head for a month.
