We left the Elks early in the morning so that we could catch an early tram to the trailhead. Unfortunately there was some car trouble so we had to take the later tram. On the hike there were many pretty views of the mountains around us. Once we were all set up we relaxed, and some scouts went swimming in the cold river. Later in the evening at the fire Mr. Brady told a story about Big Joe the truck driver. We left the campsite around 10:30 and took a couple of hours to hike out.
