Camp above Sharktooth Creek where the Goodale Pass Trail trail coming from Fish Valley reaches the ridge with views to the east side of Cascade Valley. One of my standard sites on this route, but only when there's water coming down from Lost Keys Lakes. This year was wet enough. Still a 15 minute round trip to get water to the camp, but well worth it. Great views to the east - I think there are shots of that from 2 years ago in this thread.

Hey Fish, I've seen that camp before somewhere. You know the rules Dude-- only 1 photo per camp, unless you add a dog to it. :nod:

There is a stuffed mouse in there in his hammock. Lazy bugger didn't want to come out to pose under the moon. Something about too cold...

Forester Lake from above trip.
According to Tarptent website, this is the Moment model. I've been using for almost ten years, rain or shine. Zipper not the best, but when it acted up my wife fixed it with a pair of pliers.
