    Beautiful country, ... and you're making me hungry, especially that camp stew. Thanks for posting.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Sigh.... I REALLY miss camping. I haven't been in the woods or 'smelled the smell of wood-smoke' for about two years now (dang job schedule keeps me from being able to get away on weekends like I used to).

    nice looking shots. One of the coldest night I spent was in Logan canyon in August. The days were hot but the night was colder than a witches tit.

    I worked at a pack station for Desolation wilderness for 10 summers.
    Beautiful country and GREAT trout fishing.

    Your pictures were great and really revved up my impatience. We are heading out this coming Sunday and going to Sun River, OR. We enjoy drifting down the river in the two persons inner tubes and a sack lunch.
