10/28/2014 10:36AM Had a great time. The weather was perfect. Warm days and enough chill at night to fire up the tent stove. Photos to follow. |

10/27/2014 10:23PM Lots of stories to tell about this year. Very late nights and early mornings. The best photos have been posted to the WCS Facebook page I think the best stories come from the kids who attended the Kid's camp. They got to work with some amazing guys who taught them bushcraft skills on Saturday. When I got my two boys home they went right to the back yard to make a fire and whittle with their new Mora knives. |

09/26/2014 10:04PM My wife and I are going this year. Tried to go two years ago but had to bail at the last minute. Hoping to pull it off this time. Looking forward to new experiences, especially trying out a borrowed hot tent! |
