    I'd take one if it were the size of a gopro but no way would I be up for lugging around that amount of gear.

    I camped this way in a buddies backyard except with the tarp cliped in the back doors and pulled down over the tailgate, it was decent. Then again with no tarp off of the Appalachian trail/creeper trail in VA

    Inaugural use of the napier. Super easy to set up, plenty of room for the 2 of us, an airbedz, and 3 dogs. Well, 2 dogs and a dachshund runt.

    Actually that tent can't cost that much to send, if that will fit my 05 DCSB. Can I pay you to send it to me for a month or so in the early Spring? I would like to use that as much as I can, maybe early Summer. That way my daughter and I can use it when she has no school!!!

    I love that area of the coast, did you get to see this? I think it's one of the most beautiful vistas.

    Yeah it's an amazing little hidden secret, not really a secret but most people drive by not knowing what is right beside them.

    In part because the parking lot isn't all that obvious.

    I posted this elsewhere but I'll post it again cause it's one of the prettiest parts of the Big Sur Coast.
