===> What a great trip report! Lessons from experience (both good and bad), and family reconnections in Nature are the huge payoff!
Many people don't sleep Well the first night, especially if its been a while.
Packs (and packing!) are uber important, and the 'ten essentials' (good Topo maps being one) are as well.
That said, you guys did it right, persevered through all the difficulties, saw some beautiful places, took memorable pictures, and saw past the issues to the beauty and potential that awaits you in the woods!
A group hang would be great for you guys!
Thank you for an insightful, and well done report!
Hang on!
