Our last full day of camping began cold. However, our spirits were wamred with the majestic view of the mountain ranges right near our campsite. Today, we are going to tackle the Deer Park to Obstruction Point trail: 15.2 miles of pure hiking. The Park Ranger had told us the previous day that this hike will be unlike any other; you traverse through the alpines straight to meadows and then up the Hurricane Ridge ridgeline.
It was gorgeous hike with a lot of opportunties to take stunning photos. We were even able to take a Buddah pic together. A Buddah pic is a photo op where you take off your shirt and show your finely-tuned belly in celebration of a hike well done. Whatever the weather, whoever is around, the show must go on.
After our hike, we were ready to eat! Chicken and potatoes were on the menu and it couldn’t have come at a better time. After eating, we looked up at the sky and I couldn’t remember the last time I saw the sky filled with stars. We were indeed above the clouds tonight and it was a treat to have after such a long day.
After star gazing, Kevin finally realized his amazing adventure of 3 months was about to end. He is going back to Victoria, B.C. to go join the working force. Thanks to Derrick for planning this camping trip to wish Kevin good luck in the working world.
