================================================== ===========
Since this event was announced on HF, CampingForums, HH, on six different meetup groups and eight different FaceBook groups, Host Karla "with a k" decided to try using a central website rather than have information spread across the multiple social media sites and discussion forums.
Why the name Lovers Leap @ Lapham Peak? (No, there is no actual Lovers Leap lookout at the park. There is a very cool tower though.
#1 - Karla just thought it was a fun name combining camping and the time around Valentine's Day
#2 - and it rhymes and it kinda leaves you tongue-tied
#3 - plus, it was super fun to design a website with everything in shades of pink
Besides myself, we had three HF members and one Facebook member attend. Two Meetup people decided this event might be a bit too much for them and backed out within the last week.
While is site is approved for 10 people, given the size of the firepit and where the large logs to sit on are placed, we found 5 a great and perfect number for sitting around the campfire.
Friday's low was 11 degrees. Saturday high was 30 and low was 13. There was snowfall on Saturday afternoon - less than an inch. The trails were VERY icy and VERY choppy. Those wearing microspikes navigated the best.
For those who attended - please add on to this start of a trip report.....
