Great British Backpacking Baking Show

OVERVIEW

let’s go backpacking in the rain on Friday! It will not stop us. I want to practice making backcountry bread. I want to camp by a river. I’m also hoping to incorporate some nature connection activities! This will not be super physically strenuous, but it’s a good time to hone skills like setting up tarps, backcountry cooking, and keeping your shit dry.
