We had a camp out last weekend, but I forgot the camera, so this camp report is without pictures.
If you remember, last weekend was the time the winter storm blew in. We camped at Willow Park in Lehi, one of our favorite places to camp close to home.
The wind was blowing a bit and it was snowing lightly when we arrived. We did a little fudging on our fire starting and used a bit of lighter fluid to get things started.
We had some awesome dinners cooked over a very nice hot fire including hot dogs, sloppy joes, foil dinners, and even burritos.
We took the liberty of really enjoying this camp by bringing a camp trailer and playing cards out of the wind and cold until about 10 pm.
The scouts slept in the trailer, one leader in his car, and I slept in my tent. Does that seem a little backwards to anyone else?
In the morning we built another nice hot fire and cooked waffles, and a really yummy hash over the fire. One scout had pop tarts. Can you guess which one chose pop tarts?
We packed up camp, played cards for awhile as well as built snow forts out of the newly fallen snow and then headed home.
We always find that no matter what the weather or time of year, Willow Park is always a great place to go and practice our campfire cooking skills. And this time was no exception.
