More Pine Barren Pics

Setting up the campsite in Wharton. We only stayed for a night and were pretty tired so it was a minimalist sort of deal.

It is nice to relax with some water after a long day.

The four plants I saw were....grass (you know what that looks like), scrub oak (the short stuff in front), wild blueberries (the lighter bushes in back), and pines, (the trees...duh). There were also some lichens and a few weedy wildflowers but not many.

Another view, different from our northeast forests isn't it?

Here's a view of our cozy bed. The cooler got to sleep with us because there weren't any bear boxes, but it wasn't too squished...mostly :P

One last shot of the campsite. We put our boxes and various bags in the big black Bell bag (say that five times fast!) to stay dry if it rained, and out of the paws of any curious critters.
