Yeah, I was figuring on starting small - the group I hike with (which is where the B-group of my "name" comes from) have ended up pretty much spending all day on our hikes - too many cool things to do and see along the way. It seemed like a natural extension to make one of our little adventures into an overnighter to see what it was like. Hike in far enough to be away from the trail head, but not so far that it'd be a real pain if we needed/felt like bailing in a hurry. I will do some looking around.

One of these days I'll have to maybe even venture as far as AK in the winter - two of my siblings are up there (Anchorage for sis and one of the islands in the Gulf of AK for bro).
