I try to get out for 1 or 2 nights solo every year. The funny thing is, at first I feel like the sliding off my self-inflating mattress (slight slope), bugs, etc., are no fun, the moment I return to 'civilization', the instant I realize what an unparalleled great experience I had!

Nice work. I only get out on a solo trip once a year. They honestly scare me but that's just because my mom didn't leave the light on at night paranoid.gif Great work! Fun story.

Ingunn - congrats on your first overnight solo! Love the mouse sketch and the tent monster shot! up.gif It is unfortunate about your shorts - that happened to me on a recent trip also. Unfortunately, I was not solo so I think both of my hiking partners went temporarily blind. embarassedlaugh.gif I don't know why hiking pants/shorts have that issue, I've heard of many similar incidents, but never with non-hiking pants.

PLAY SAFE! SKI ONLY IN CLOCKWISE DIRECTION! LET'S ALL HAVE FUN TOGETHER!
