Much planning went into it letters were written to' the park ranger, maps were stud ied, and camping gear and outdoor-menus were pondered over. Into a miniature pup tent bank went money saved for the trip. Parents were in cluded in the planning ses sions. A national park was chosen since it has the advan tage that other wilderness areas don't-solitude with pro tection. In June the girls took a practice overnight hike on the Mt. McLoughlin trail. This was to test pack boards, boots, other gear, and dehydrated foods. It also gave any girl an opportunity to change her mind about making the trip, but not one did.

After the work was done and tents were put in order for the day, the girls were free to relax in the sun, or hike to nearby Jakes to fish. The camp-site was near Lower Twin lake, a day's hike from the Ranger station, and visitors were few except for deer. V "It was a very successful Younger. "It is true the packs camping trip, wrote Mrs were heavy and at times the going was rough, but a few mosquito bites and mild sun burns were our only mishaps. There were inconveniences, of course, but the girls will re member ' longest the little things that were fun and the nightly sings around the campfire with the deer listen ing to our harmony just out side the circle of firelight. My girls are a joy to camp with; they are independent, self-reliant, and each is capa ble of 'camping by herself. They are not the super-athletic type, just average junior high school girls with a wide variety of interests, but they share a common bond-their love of nature as God created it."
