What's next?

At the moment (3:30pm) most groups are probably still pushing toward their final camp site but the course is definitely winding down in their minds.  The goal today is to get close enough to the pickup trailhead that they can reach it easily in the morning.

Many groups also complete their teaching and celebrate the upcoming end of the course.  Here are a few things that groups might be doing tonight:

• Writing a letter to themselves, we collect these letters and send them back to the students when they are in college
• Revisiting their group flag and talking about the values and behaviors that made them successful on trail
• Awarding end of course certificates that we send out on trail with the instructors
• Eating a big celebration dinner!

It's pretty quiet her by the phone as I write up the driving directions for the pick up drivers tomorrow.  We'll see everyone soon!
