Jeep camping, July 3rd, 09

We decided to head 14 miles up Junction Creek Road and find a cherry spot, enjoy the day, and test out some new jeep camping gear. New tent, stove, tables, air-mattresses, etc.

Here are the pics of the event. We took lunch and dinner and even had s'mores. The dogs ran around like idiots. I was secretly hoping something would eat them when I turned a blind-eye. Unfortunately, this did not occur. Click any image for full size.


Base Camp, The tent is a 6 man; plenty of room for all of our air mattresses!

We have two hammocks that I setup above base camp for an outstanding view!

A view from the campsite. Facing northerly relative to Durango.

Notice the clouds; the day was fraught with thunderstorms, but, we avoided them!

Overall, it was a very relaxing and enjoyable day. I needed to test drive the gear before we used it to spend the night anywhere.
