Truck Camping Photo Thread

It's the only beer I drink. I haven't had anything different in my refrigerator for 15 years!

 

It says it right on the can… Rainier For Life.

 

I was really happy to find it at Total Wine in Reno yesterday. Definitely stocked up as a treat.

 

In one word ... Longmire.

 

Used to drive by the building on I-5 a lot.

 

A Columbia cliffs quickie

one-nighter along the Columbia River, central WA:


looking south at the Sentinel Gap:



highs in the upper 30's, most snow melted off by afternoon:



watch out for that first step, it's a lulu!







cleared by mid evening with billions of stars and 1/2 moon, low of 25:

 

I had lunch sitting on the edge of those cliffs, definitely makes your stomach feel woozy but the views are great!

 

Wandering Washington Winter Wonderlands

Saddle Mountains, central WA, east of the Sentinel Gap:















woke up in the clouds:


bread and water for brunch:

 

Whoopi-ty-aye-oh, I'm back in the Saddle Mountains Again

There's a lot to explore in them thar hills; about 17 miles east of my last spot:


day highs in the upper 40's with lingering snow patches:








a (nearly)full moon rise in the east just before sunset:


which lasted all night, full moon set in the west just before sunrise:

 

A Yakima Quickie

a one-nighter along the Yakima River, WA - a linear oasis snaking through an arid sagebrush steppe:









here's to no more getting dark at 4-f*cking-thirty PM shit (at least for a few months):



a mild night with a low of 40 F:





2nd day mostly sunny and very windy- actually observed tumbling tumbleweeds:

 

Looks like you made it through my neck of the woods!

 

Wandering Washington Winter Wastelands

Juniper Dunes, southeastern WA;
as I only have 2wd, I was relegated to dune lurker:












a mild night (40 F) with 1/4 moon and billions of stars:

 

A Cascades Quickie

under a grove of towering Douglas Firs along the Bumping River;
overnight low of 30F with 2/3 moon and stars:

 

Finally made it out to Death Valley

 

Got back from Death Valley in time to camp with some friends on the coast last weekend

 

Nice setup
