Nice trip report, and nice photos too. Thanks for sharing!

Really glad to hear you finally got out for a few nights. That looks like a pretty sweet area to camp out to me.

You're tarp looked great. I used one I made just like it a few times while I was testing out different shelter designs and a hammock I'd got. It was right after that I sold my backpacking tents because I knew I'd never use them again. One was too small and the other too heavy and that cheap plastic tarp set up just like you had it was better than both.
