Hike at Volo Bog

Sunday May 6th, we met at Volo Bog for our group training hike. I still need to purchase a larger pack as I didn't make it to REI like I wanted to, so I put only about 10 lbs in my camelbak while mostly everyone else wore their new backpacks [some still had their tags on] and put 30-45 lbs in them. A pretty easy 3.5 mile hike total between the two trails, however the idea was just to get used to carrying a weighted pack. Volo Bog, lucky enough for me was only about 10 minutes down the road, where everyone else had to drive between 45 minutes to an hour and 10 minutes. It was very nice of everyone to make the drive up north so I didn't have to drive very far.
