Arriving at camp, Friday afternoon |
Ben inspecting our mini-keg of Heineken |
|
|
|
Our shelter for the next two nights. Nice tent! |
|
|
Glad to be here! |
Tony's camera gear and winter tool packs. My running joke was, "We're here for a week, right?!" |
|
|
The inside of the tent, before we moved in... |
A nice little box of fatwood for starting and maintaining our stove... |
|
|
Cheater tool... |
A colorful photo of Tony's pack |
|
|
Ben on second shift of splitting wood for the tent stove. Wide angle lens effect! |
Ben running his Gränsfors Bruks axe into some finely seasoned birch... |
|
|
|
|
Couz starting the fire |
Note the beer mini-keg right next to the fire, to keep it from freezing... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Couz, Ben and Tony at our fire |
|
|
|
Fifteen-second exposure of Couz with his headlamp, drawing silly images. |
Ben going for a lightning bolt effect... |
|
|
Ben and his nice cursive, writing his name on my camera sensor... |
Couz got his "Z" backwards. It is hard to write backwards in the dark! |
|
|
Tony ran out of time on the 15-second exposure to complete his "Y". I got my "N" wrong the first time, just like Couz did on his "Z" |
|
|
|
|
|
Couz starting the tent stove late at night. This photo is lit just by those two candle lanterns, even though the one on the left has four candles. What a great "on steroids" candle lantern! |
|
|
|
|
|
Ben over the late fire |
Creating fireworks for my camera... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Saturday morning, right before breakfast. Yep, that's a frozen banana on the smoldering coals. |
Couz starting breakfast. Sausages and flapjacks, with butter and real maple syrup! |
|
|
|
Silly photo of Ben with the wide angle... |
|
|
Ben knew it was silly, so he got me back... |
|
|
|
|
Camera danger! Brought it back in too quick and it fogged up... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Wide angle humor on my cold-weather hat! |
Sausage and flapjacks! Ver' much!!! |
|
|
Skipping all day on Saturday, this is now Sunday morning! Cold! |
One of Tony's boots left outside all night. It is about as pliable as frozen steel... |
|
|
Tony's completely frozen packs on Sunday morning. |
