Winter Camping

I have been trying to go winter camping for three years now, and finely made it out this year. I had some extra time this winter do to my foot and not being able to ski, (which is a good thing as far as I’m concerned). Anyway, winter camping is a lot of fun. This is actually my second two day winter camping trip. The first time was at Levis with Matthew and Dan. This time was on Jerry Lake, off the ice age trail, up there north of 64. The crew was Dan, Tim, and I. Winter camping consists of: keeping warm, making fire wood, food, and water. All of that while taking pulls form the flask, and taking smart to one another, make the days go by fast. Here are the rest of the pictures to tell the tale.

I started the day thinking that Dan Hillier and I were going to go winter camping, but...
Here how the story goes: On Christmas day I went for a three hour classic ski workout. On that day I didn't have good technique and that caused me to slip alot on any kind of incline. Anyway, by the end of the day my foot was killin me. So as smart as I am I went skiing the next day, needless to say that didn't last very long. My workouts since have consisted of skate skiing about four days a week. Than having to rest my foot the rest of the week. The brain child that I am, on Monday I tried classic skiing again, needless to say I had to stop after thirty min's. This lead me to the doctors office this morning with the news of a stress fracture in my metatarsal. Ya for me, I to have be in this walking cast for four weeks. Look out bike trainer here I come, or maybe some P90X?
