I absolutely love the idea of a co-ed crew. If ever the time comes, I will quickly remind myself that you folks were correct and not just spouting politically correctness at me. In your absence I will give myself 3 or 4 zingers about "I told you so, I told you so!" I'm from Missouri. But, tell me, are we meeting the requirements for the backpacking elective by going 3 days, 2 nights and travelling not less than 15 miles? 7.5 miles each day, with food, water, tentage, sleeping bag, clothes, and other gear?
