backpacking is my passion, a shame that no one really does it around here. i like going to shawnee state forest here and get "lost" for a couple weeks. i've taken lot's of people with me in the past but it always ends up the same. people bitching and aurgueing and missing the T.V. too bad i have seen some great things. backpacking, you can get lost and yet find yourself. again, great pics!
