Yeh thats exactly why we headed for the hills! Usually we'd be pitched right next to it, and there'd be about 30 tents! but this time it was just us, and that other tent.. I'd like to put more pics up but it won't let me :'C
And how can you stick that! We couldn't help ourselves, it was to perfect of weather! haha
Next time Im around that area, We'll go behind the mountain, out of the way
