Before I left Calgary there were more leaves on the ground than in the trees. We are now at the same point in the Red. With the changing seasons has come a change in population around the campground. The October crew, complete with it's many weekend warriors, has left behind a stubborn group of people who are patiently waiting for cooler climbing temps. The down jackets are coming out, and long johns may make an appearance any day now. We each have our own ways of dealing with the cold: Marshal went the old man pajama route, while I opted for the ever-so comfortable electric blanket. Sleeping in the van has never been so fantastic. Occasionally I feel sorry for Marshal in his cold tent, sleeping on lumpy ground, but that thought quickly fades as I explore all eleven setting of my greatest purchase ever.
Here are a few random pics:
