Over 130 students came to the Career Services Backpack to Briefcase event participating in speed networking, real part time job interviews, and enjoying the Theater groups presentation of Interviews Gone Wild.
Students were invited to join a career services event about how to become successful in the world. They learned how to design a good resume, building leadership skills, and finding the right fit for them.
This backpack has the look of a drawstring backpack but without the drawstring. There are no zippers to deal with but items still remain secure with front snap closure. The backpack can be expanded by undoing the side snaps. How cool is that!
I recently put together a book for my dad that contained photographs of some of our many wilderness camps. I thought I would share some of those campviews and memories here.

Hammocking among the trees. During this trip I remember being schooled on proper food storage by a volunteer ranger. That ranger made an impression - mostly because I knew the importance of proper food storage while in the backcountry and absentmindedly chose to neglect on a short-walk-turned-long away from camp.

My first backpacking trip is done🙌 Steve and myself explored the Indian Heaven Wilderness in Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Washington, about two hour drive from Portland. We entered from the west via Forest Road 65 and the Thompson Lake Trailhead. About seven miles of one way hiking to our campsite at Bear Lake. The two night adventure featured: Through hikers (part of it involved the Pacific Crest Trail), alpine meadows, trees, lakes (there were A LOT), nudity, and of course lots and lots and lots of huckleberries! #backpacking #throughhike #indianheavenwilderness #giffordpinchotnationalforest
Here's a few highlights from our 4 day backpacking trip into the Mt Jefferson Wilderness. The 5 mile hike into Carl Lake is lined with wild huckleberries and views of Mt. Jefferson.
From our base camp, we hiked the PCT and other trails with swimmable lakes. A true wilderness experience with only a few other campers.
The trailhead is accessed from the Jack Creek Trailhead off of Hwy 22, between Suttle Lake and Sisters (12 miles). It's about a 3 hour drive from Portland with about 5 miles of gravel.
Add this to your summer camping list.
Kids have lots of stuff -- action figures, toys, games, books, pencils, crayons, and snacks -- that they like to carry around with them. Kids need Monsters to take care of them and their little stuff (so you can focus on the big stuff).
ArtsiBitsi Monster Backpacks are for kids of all ages. Each one is soft, yet sturdy, with a funny face and teeny little feet. They're completely washable, although hand washing is recommended. The bag closes with a simple flap and drawstring that is easy for little hands to open and close. When the backpack is on, it's closed, so there won't be any lost treasures.
