Hard Core Camping @ Big Bear

Well, this is a little late to post, but I found some old pictures of when we went camping up at Big Bear in September. I can't really remember the date, but Jackson's leg was well and we we had a jolly good time. Saturday morning we drove up to find a campsite (we weren't able to reserve one beforehand because it was a spur of the moment trip). However, once we got up there, we stopped at the Ranger Station and were informed that we would have the best luck with a campsite if we were willing to "dry camp". We said sure and headed out on an adventure to find a camping spot. Ridge got his first experiences doing a little off-roading and for a moment Nathan even had to throw it into a little 4X! oh yes... We ended up finding a secluded little spot (where a creek must run through in the springtime), and set up camp. Broke in the new, enormous tent, cooked a little grub on the tailgate, and had a great time. The next morning we went geocaching!! --Jill
