Great Having Students Here at the Base, Rain and Back Day!!

We had our two NOLS Southwest Outdoor Educator Courses arrive at the base today. They spent the day getting all of their clothing and equipment they needed for two weeks of backpacking. They bagged food, pulled the fuel they will need for their stoves and started to prepare classes that they will be teaching in the field. It was a busy day... in the rain. It rained all day here which was a great thing for our beautiful chunk of the Sonoran desert... though once again the desert dog was pissed off!

Today's quote is Henry Wadsworth Longfellow:

"The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain."
