We’re finishing up week six of the Wilderness Bushcraft Semester, and tomorrow morning we’re headed to the Allagash for our second trip of the course. We’ll be putting in at Indian Stream and paddling to Allagash Village. We’re in a midsummer weather pattern with a lot of thunderstorms in the afternoon, so that might be a challenge, but the water is high from all the rain so we should have great conditions for the trip.
When we get back from the trip, we have week eight in camp to finish a bunch of projects as well as run our practical exams for the course, before heading out on solos during week 9.
Nine weeks sounds like (and is) a long time, but when you’re as busy as we have been it seems to fly by in an instant.
