Who knew young boys knew so much about a woman’s reproductive system. Cameron on the other hand swore women only had around 400 eggs, something we all tried to convince him was a gross underestimation. Despite being a woman with eggs and using logic to try to convince Nelson that it is hormones, not egg depletion that leads to menopause he was stubborn on the subject. Then there was the debate over how many eggs a woman has and whether or not using them all is what leads to menopause. Day one there was the conversation about how fast crocodiles can run, with Cameron swearing they could sprint upwards of 35 miles an hour and Nelson (and the rest of us) saying that was ridiculous. When we weren’t quoting movies we debated crazy facts that arose out of mysterious winding conversation. We await his review of all the privies with anticipation. His worst poop? Sitting on the privy at Pyramid Creek, in the pouring rain, toilet paper wet and himself soaked. He pooped at least three times a day and managed to visit almost every privy we came across. While all the boys took their turns ripping farts it was Nelson that took the cake when it came to pooping. At Maple Creek I turned around after tidying up the packs to find Cameron with his head zipped out of the tent to escape the stench within. While Cameron got to spend all day crop dusting Kyle he too received pay back at night when he was trapped in a tent with Nelson. The tables had finally turned for Kyle and he discovered what it was like to eat farts all day, a truly vicious twist of fate. Every time we crossed a bridge someone would shout, “WHAT, is your favorite color?” And this was all punctuated by Cameron shouting, “Incoming!” and Kyle, who had valiantly taken up the rear, choking and gagging on Cameron’s farts. One day we sang Jesus Christ Superstar for an hour before switching tracks and reciting all of our favorite parts of Monty Python’s Search for the Holy Grail. Whenever I am around my brothers we find ourselves quoting the movies of our childhood: LOTR, Austin Powers, Monty Python, the Best of Dana Carvey and other SNL favorites. Cameron bet us that he could probably come up with a LOTR quote for every circumstance we encounter on trail. I suddenly realized that Kyle, having only seen the Lord of the Rings movies once when he was very sick in Flagstaff may not have caught on to the fact that at least 75% of what Cameron and Nelson had said so far that day were LOTR quotes. “Up, up, up, up the stairs we go!” Cameron quoted happily as we climbed up towards Burroughs Mountain. That time Cammy had to stick his head out of the tent to escape Nelson’s farts. His food consisted entirely of ramen and GORP burritos because he had scavenged them from the cupboards at home, spending almost nothing on the hike. If Cameron looked like a thru-hiker Nelson thought and acted like one. Hiker trash 101: Pee while everyone else is taking a group photo.Ĭameron immediately proved, day one of the hike, that he would fit right in with AT or PCT thru-hikers when he came around the car wearing the shortest shorts any of us had ever seen. I didn’t know I was about to go hiking with the dream team, a team that just happens to be my family. I could not have imagined how fun, positive, upbeat, adventurous, and determined everyone would turn out to be. I didn’t know what exactly would come out of the trip, but I knew that all of our relationships were strong and comfortable, a good basis for many long, tired, hungry days on trail. Neither of them had done any long backpacking trips and I couldn’t wait to introduce them to a world that I felt was integral to who I was and who I am becoming, not to mention the world in which Kyle and I forged many of the best parts of our relationship. When they had both agreed to go I had been over the moon.
