Mount Greylock

Our first camping adventure

October 19-21, 2003

By the fall semester of 2003, our club was a year old and we were ready to reach for new heights. So we set our sights on the tallest mountain in Massachusetts: Mt. Greylock. Josh (pictured at far left) graciously organized this 3-day mid-semester break camping trip at Mt. Greylock State Reservation, located in Adams, MA in the northwest corner of the state.

Chester in the snow

When we got there we were met by an early season snowfall. Chester practically vanished before our eyes. Do you see him?

Hiking among snowy pines

The snow was very scenic though.

Campsite and tents

We found our campsite. Setting up the tents was a piece of cake! (Well, at least some of us thought so.)

Josh with appetite

By nightfall Josh had worked up an appetite.
