Camp Shots

[ERIC]

Thought I'd try something different. This thread is dedicated to prime campsite views. Showcasing tents, camp kitchens, and other photos along that theme.

I'll start.

I have a habit of taking several pictures of my campsite in the morning, from different angles. In the evening usually there is not enough light by the time my camp is set up. Here is one shortly before sunrise.

Here is one from a trip to Forester Lake in SEKI, September 2008:

Here are a couple I was able to easily locate:

Palisade Lakes and between Ursa and Big Bear Lakes.

This was from a mid Sept 2006 trip to Evelyn Lk and other places in Yose.. No vistas.. just a behind the scenes look.

The tree which we like to camp behind on the NE end

Our cowboy camp arrangement on a tarp. 3 of us are still in the bags:

Yes, I'm still in my bag

And then what we did at night.. Pai Gow!

I think I won that hand

On LeConte Divide above Martha Lake to the right, Rainbow Lake(Blackcap Basin) to the left, and Confusion Lake just below the peaks ahead. It rained like hell the day before, with lightning strikes, until sunset. I woke up to clear, clean skies and excellent views. SEKI August 2012
My tent is a REI Chrysalis UL solo. I really like it, not a lot of room, but it kept me dry on this trip, which was very stormy. Notice, though, the plastic garbage bag over the front. I had to rig this up after the transparent(plastic) porthole failed on my first night out. Apparently the high humidity of my Southern climes compromised the adhesive around the porthole. The garbage bag was a hassle but worked well.
