Before I post about Berlin, I have a few other things to cover. Greg and I have been slowly accumulating all of the supplies needed to take a nice long weekend backpacking trip. REI is probably happy to add us to their membership list. Two weekends ago, we decided to try out ort equipment more locally by taking a day trip backpacking through a forest reserve area near Baumholder. On a previous trip, we stumbled onto this place on accident when we parked along the trail head to adjust our GPS. A sign we parked next to held pamphlets explaining the highlights of the trail. I kept the pamphlet just in case we decided to come out that way again.
