It appears I don't take this kind of picture, at all. Only picture from inside my sleeping quarters is one of many bug bites on my legs.

Not out the door, but straight up Either up the north fork between Cody and Yellowstone, or up above Gardiner MT, that trip but not labeled. And not a good view but me in the tent after getting slapped around by my white water paddle, exhausted but happy

Here's a room with a view---Hangover Mt in NC at around 5,000 feet.

Beautiful photos, all! I am obviously not camping in the right locations. All of our campsites have been designated and not much for views. Coolkat - that will be my view from the deck of a laker boat in a few weeks. Very much looking forward to the Superior sunrises and sunsets!

echo --I like the straight up through the tent kind, too. I posted one from last year...let me see if I can find it. And as a bonus, it has feet, too!

I do this often if I'm confident there won't be any rain during the night. that will be my view from the deck of a laker boat in a few weeks. Very much looking forward to the Superior sunrises and sunsets! Now that sounds like a great relaxing time. There is just something about the big lake they call "Gitche Gumee".

I do this often if I'm confident there won't be any rain during the night. We've always put the fly back on for the night, to keep it warmer, keep out drafts, or just to dim the moonlight. I would have liked to leave it off a couple of nights on this recent trip, but it was very windy, which is uncomfortable even if not cold (the final night it was blowing dust--ugh. Still cleaning that out of stuff).

Wish I could post something up but due to computer issues I've lost all my photos other than old hard 35s.
Thanks for the pics folks.
Walter, that pic of shunka dawg made me laugh out loud. I just want to reach out and skritch him/her behind the ears.

tipiwalter, what kind of a dog is Shunka? I noticed the shortish fur on his/her face. At first I thought she/he was a puppy because of the youthful looking face, then I saw the whitish fur on the chin. Looks like an affectionate dog though!

tipiwalter, what kind of a dog is Shunka? I noticed the shortish fur on his/her face. At first I thought she/he was a puppy because of the youthful looking face, then I saw the whitish fur on the chin. Looks like an affectionate dog though! Shunka was 14 when this pic was taken. I shaved his thick hair due to the heat. He got sick on a previous 9 day backpacking trip and I had to carry him out. When we got out the vet said he had vestibular disease-- Vestibular disease in geriatric dogs is often mistaken for stroke. The vertigo caused by the disease can be particularly intense in older dogs with symptoms of nausea, difficulty or complete inability to stand up, head tilt, nystagmus, and circling.
He had a real attack of this on our previous 9 day trip and I camped with him for 8 days and then carried him out on Day 9. He slowly learned to walk again but was a little sideways with head tilt etc. Here's a pic carrying Shunka out of the Upper Bald River wilderness. He got much better and could walk again and managed to pull 5 more trips and lived another 7 months. He still liked to bite honey bees swarming around my pack---

A little bit more on Shunka--- He liked his tunes. On our very last trip we went into Slickrock wilderness and camped on the Nichols Cove trail where I took this nearly final shot of him.
