I'll definitely go out again. I'm trying to work up to some overnights in the Adirondacks in New York. I've traveled out there a few times and found the area addicting. Even just one or two nights overnight would let me cover so much more area. So I'm starting with some simpler hikes closer to home to get my gear all figured out. On the Wisconsin River were you camping on sand bars? I've canoed on the river and set up lunch on the sand bars but never camped. I never really considered camping until recently because my experience growing up was car camping with sites packed next to each other. Backcountry camping appeals to me so much more.
