Camping Trip June 2012

During the weekend of June 8th, Dave and Marshal went backpacking/camping to the Jones Springs area in northern Wisconsin.  They were there before a few years ago, but this time went with the Heap family (a friend in our ward).  Their boys never backpacked before.  The weather was warm and generally nice.  Mosquitoes were not too bad but we did see quite a few ticks.  Unfortunately we didn't catch any fish but we did catch a fair number of frogs, crayfish, and tadpoles.  Despite Dave's "death march" through the swamp, everyone had a good time.
