The lesson of this trip is have good friends with a trailer who are willing to share their warm kitchen table for dinner. When we arrived on Monday, it was merely raining, and with the help of our friend Kent we managed to setup our giant tarp over our picnic table, and get the new tent up. We gave the Vector XL a test and it passed with flying colors.
We awoke Tuesday morning to the snow. Humbug valley is only 4,300 feet in elevation, and the snow was very wet. It was a perfect trip for hats and moebius. And I had the forethought to pack a down jacket, and slip on shoes for the 4:00 am trip to the outhouse. The full moon made for an incredible landscape at that time of the morning. Tuesday the precipitation turned to hail. it never rained only hailed.
Wednesday brought us a day warm enough for a yoga practice and a dinner outside. Thursday the wind came, and the clouds.
This morning we packed up in the sun, everything dried out.
WOW!
