Getting Offby Mark Sevier
If one reads the Carroll recruiting pamphlet carefully, they will read something to the effect of “ Weekends find the Carroll Students backpacking in the nearby Big Belt Mountains . . .” As nice as this pitch sounds, the fact remains that the majority of students, once classes start, limit their excursions to the flora and fauna found on Park Ave. on the way to the Pub. However, this lack of outdoor involvement is not necessary, even when one has a lab practical on the following Tuesday. In this issue, and in issues following, I will attempt to outline a few basic trips one may take that involve a night, a day, or an entire weekend. All you arm chair backpackers, drop books, grab your day packs, and travel along with me as we GET OFF.A night on Mt. Helena. The local
residents are proud of the fact that Helena boasts of the second largest city park in the country, second only to Central Park in the Big Apple. Anyway, I do not know the regulations governing sleeping overnight on top of Mt.
