IMHO it's not a good trip unless you have some adversity to overcome no matter how small.

I wouldn't even of minded my former tripping pals whining/bitching IF we were moving forward and not just dawdling away our travel time.

I've learned something every outdoor/camping trip I've ever been on. Before QJ I would think about problems I encountered and hopefully a better solution would come to mind.

What's great about posting trip reports here if your honest, is that you get feedback from others who've ran into the same problems or you "enlighten" others.

Giving/getting that "duh" moment in replies is why I enjoy anyone's efforts to do a trip report.

If you don't hit some rough spots you start to take the great ones for granted.

All "women" hate to be taken for granted, Mother Nature included. ;D
