One Last Camping Trip

 N&A:  Idaho style -- we don't need no stinkin' campsite (so long as we bring all our own water and are prepared to pee in the bushes and take our garbage with us).  This area was nicely flattened by a logging operation back in the day. 


N&A:  And it came with a spectacular view and plenty of peace and quiet (except for all the noise we made, which, Papa will tell you, was considerable)


N&A: Hiking around -- downhill to a series of dams and ponds and some old gold mining equipment.  Uphill to a Forest Service lookout tower.


N&A:  Here's Mama taking in the view from the Forest Service lookout tower.  There's another lookout on another nearby mountain peak.  Azimuth readings from the two lookouts can pinpoint the location of a back-country fire.
