After looking at all these pics I cannot wait to get back into the wilderness. I have re-equiped for lighter equipment and may even try the bivy shelters this summer. I think I am going to dig around and see if I still have some of my pics.

Solo scouting in the blues for my elk hunt. Dug out a nice spot for the night.

buy one decent tent and you do not need to worry about bivy sacs, tarps, hammocks and everything else to stay comfortable and dry. I do not have any pictures but a ba fly creek ul2 weighs just over two lbs and has more room than a hammock or bivy sac and is probably just as light after factoring in the other stuff. Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Last summer in ALW with a friend of mine. Can't see much of the tents, but the view was pretty nice

" Here is a few I have used. I now use the hammock with a rain fly and love it! "

wondering how cold youve slept in the hammock, i have a new one, dangerbird,  but hammock forum everybody uses under quilt insulation, sure beats sleeping on the ground with old man back

Bumping this back up to remind everyone going out to take pics of your camp.

Here is my scouting camp from last weekend.

Opening week camp near McCall Basin, Goat Rocks/Rimrock unit.  52 mountain goats above camp opening night.  Amazing thunder and lightning storm later in the week, complete with swollen creek crossing and a long wet night.
