Big Cottonwood Canyon

An overnighter in Big Cottonwood canyon gave us a bit of a break from school. The weather was perfect, and we got a nice campsite with plenty of room for the enormous tent we eventually managed to put up. As we all know, camping is all about the food. Mmmm, hot dogs. Some of our attendees declared this is a food that is only deliberately eaten while camping. In all other situations it ought to be avoided, like spam or sardines.









Unable to bear an entire evening in the forest with clean fingers, we assembled banana boats, complete with marshmellows, peanut butter, and chocolate chips. mmmmmmm.










Maya was a competitive sumo wrestler in high school in Japan (this is a true story). She was showing us the proper technique. It was very educational.




Campfires and campfire songs. The only bummer about the whole night was that I didn't get a picture of everyone singing "Tootie-Ta".
