Meeds - Omega - Winchell - Horseshoe Loop - First BWCA Trip
by tashit
I was up until 3:45 am packing. I knew it would take me awhile but I never guessed I would be up so late. I’m not even sure what I was doing the whole time but I still wasn’t done when I went to bed. I knew we would be leaving later than the 6 am we had planned. Around 2 am I was cutting the new rope I had bought. As I was making my very last cut (out of roughly 12 cuts), I had my finger a little too close and snipped a good 1/8” into the inside of my finger just above my big knuckle. I knew it was gonna hurt. I debated about going to get stitches but I knew that would delay our leaving quite a bit, so I put a band aid on and kept packing. I finally called it quits at 3:45. I laid in bed wide awake not able to sleep and pondered getting up to finish packing. I ended up falling asleep around 4 or a little after.
