That first place I stopped was just so discouraging. I have more pictures, the carnage was spread over a wide area. Sigh.

The second spot was nice. Well serviced by the road (decent gravel) and very level due to it's being the 'rally point' for a timber sale. The loggers HAVE to clean up after themselves or they won't get another contract. My only concern was that it was a low spot rather than high. I KNEW it was going to rain and didn't want to wake up in a lake :) It didn't rain that much and was not any sort of concern.

The sound of a gentle rain on a tent that doesn't leak is one of the most soothing sounds I know...
