I finally got out for a over nighter at Afton State Park in Afton, MN. Most of the snow is gone and temps are pretty decent.

Just when I thought you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and do something like this... and totally redeem yourself!
Great trip report video and thanks for the gear list.
How did the under quilt work out for you?
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. - E. B. White (1899 - 1985)

How is the hanging in Afton...it always seems to close to the city to really get away...
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.

Good job reporting on "Life in Afton"! It's one of my favorite day hiking spots, though I've not overnighted there (yet!).
Thanks for letting us tag along.

Always fun to watch a video and go...."I know that spot"...."I know that trail".....
It is a good quick get-away. I always go in the week and it is pretty isolated.

Great place! The best part is that it is so close...nice place to do an overnighter and not what you would think being that close to the cities.
Thanks! I was my first trip that I've recorded....thanks for the encouraging words!
Just the ones on my plate during Thanksgiving! It was a blast...wish you could have made it..
Weekdays are a lot less busy...There are some people during the day, but camping out, you're usually alone.
Spring is here and everything is out enjoying it! LOL Definitely a great place for the day hike though.
Everybody's trip report videos really make you want to get out even more!! Maybe this will spark somebody else! Week days are definitely the time to go if you want to be alone...Thanks for watching!
The pouch is very efficient on keeping your food cooking long after you put it in there....same goes for your butt! LOL
I've seen more turkeys this year....more than usual..

Nice videos!
Have you ever met a turkey that wasn't obnoxious? Glad you had a great time and got to test out your gear.
