That's pretty frickin' cool right there. I like it!
Glad you got your camera back. I bet the kid was like, oh hey! someone left behind their camera! awesome! ...and just stuck it in his pack thinking he'd scored a new toy. I'm just glad he did the right thing when questioned about it. It's a lovely area up there. I need to go back for Gothic, but man... 25 people camping up there on a Wednesday!?! Getting a bit crowded up there, that's for sure. Nice trip.
Echoing the two above sentiments, your third pic is amazing!!
We're you up there yesterday? Or Wednesday? Little bit confused from your report.
I was up there yesterday and I counted more than 20 tents when I headed out afternoon. Quite the 'zoo'.
Are there party size limits for that area? Maybe not, I think it's outside of an Wilderness Area. 25 in one group seems pretty excessive though. If anyone else was planning on being up there they are pretty much SOL when a megagroup like that hunkers down.
goleary, I saw your pic and comment about the 10 tents. And now this report. I can't help wondering, where all those campers poo.
Glad you got your summit. Del Campo is one of the best.
btw, a recent WTA report claims 30 tents in Gothic Basic on Saturday. Then there are the hordes of day hikers. This place is just getting hammered.
