Cami and Dad at at the first campsite.
Cami Jackson, Becca Johnson, and Becca Bradshaw eating dinner in the rain under the dining fly. It pored just after we set camp. But, we stayed relatively dry, and the ladies were great sports.
Becca J, Becca B, Steve Bascom, Michelle Bascom, Cami, eating dessert (nummy cholocate, strawberry crunch). 
Drying out the next morning... it was very foggy.
Eating our breakfast -- oatmeal, pop-tarts and hot chocolate.
Cami and Dad ready to hit the trail.

Becca J and Cami at Sunfish Pond.
Just hangin' out out during a break near Sunfish Pond.
We picked wild blueberries. The blueberry bushes near the trail in the sunny areas on the ridge were just full of ripe berries. mmm-mmmm.
Cami and the ladies.
Looking toward PA, over the Delaware River, from the ridge of the AT.

Looking toward PA, over the Delaware River, from the ridge of the AT.It was near this spot where we saw two bear cubs in the trees and their mama nearby. The cubs saw us, wailed, and scampered quickly down the tree. Then, the mama bear stood on her hind legs and spied us... gazed at us a few, tense moments, and then they hurriedly off ran off through the bushes in the other direction.... Very cool.
Catfish firetower... Hey down there!

Beautiful sunset towards PA as seen from the firetower.
We hiked from Catfish Firetower to the highway the next morning... It was a great outing.

Wish I was there! Thank you for blogging so we can see how exciting your life is. Can't wait to hike with you in Colorado.
Dido on EC's comment. I wish I was there, And I'm excited to hike in Colorado.
I'm also excited to send Jackson on his first Jackson hiking trip with you. I'll start teaching him "I LIKE... To HIKE!"
That will be fun! Start thinking of where you want to want to go....It was so much fun hiking with Cami and her friends. And, she is such an expert at this, now, you would be proud of her....I'm a sad to see the last of my girls moving away... We will have to plan some camping trips in our future summers.
great post.
hiking in colorado would be great fun.
finally the jackson home is back to a manly home! no more girliness!
Our internet is too slow for most of the pictures to load (sad!!) But I think that's cool that you can get an overhead shot of the camp. And wild blueberries! (Just need some Costco cheesecake to put under it. Yum)
