Overnighter in wayne N.F.

[sons of scotland]

myself and hiker41 hooked saturday up for an overhighter on wayne N.f. well the weather forecast was calling for 100% chance of rain all day and night. we kept going back and forth on whether to cancel the trip or just go and and deal with the rain. we both decided saturday morning to go, we thought what better way to test are tents, gear, and our fire prep in windy wet conditions.

hiker brought a 20'x 8' tarp to keep our gear dry.

using his becker

working on his bushclass electives

lunch

found 2 trees full of fatwood

prepping the fire

some fatwood on the fire we just found

hikers soup for dinner

i threw on 2 turkey pot pies on the grill for dinner

rain turned into snow at night

heating a pot of water for coffee

woke up to sunny skies

breakfast on the coals, scrambled eggs and Kielbasa

over all we had a great time, hiker knocked out some bushcraft classes, i finally got to set up the iron grill i got from donk, found a bunch of fatwood. we actually got lucky on the rain, we avoided the real heavy stuff and it even turned into a few snow showers for a little while. hopefully bill can add his pics a little later on. thanks for looking

How did you brown the top crust on the pot pies on a grill? I think that Bushcrart Outfitters needs to start selling Donk's grills. I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Nice pics sos, looks like the weather turned in your favour and ya had a real good time. That cookin grill set-up looks bomb proof.

Looks like it turned out pretty good with the weather. I usually have the opposite luck and will go out on a day with 10% chance or rain and end up getting poured on the whole time I'm out...You never though so it's always worth a shot. Thanks for sharing.
