sometimes one just has to get away from the noises of everything else.
Paper and pen.
Tent.
Fire.
Dogs for company.
Watching deer feed, listening to coyotes, Barred Owls, and watching fireflies.
I fell sound asleep before the Milky Way appeared but that is OK.
We slept soundly and until way after dawn broke.
PS, this is the second time I've ever camped.

The dog resistant bed. A worthy opponent. Four more beds are upstairs.

Shasta-Trinity National Forest, California.
There are no lights at the cabin except for the one hanging above the table, and you have to bring your own gas canister for it. We brought our own lights, which are inflatable, rechargeable, battery driven lights.

Forest fire smoke moves in from the Root Fire in the northern part of the state.
Castle Crags State Park. Shasta-Trinity National Forest, California.
I can't tell you the feeling I had that morning. The cool wind rushing through the Earthship as soon as the door opened. The smells of the desert, sage and earth, raven flying overhead, calling to him, Sun blinding my bedroom eyes...pure joy
The sun shines on the south face of Castle Crags nearly all day. It’s a real shadow show.
Girard Ridge Lookout. Shasta-Trinity National Forest, California.
Stuck inside on a rainy night. Taken with a Lensbaby Circular Fisheye lens.

The woodshed was well stocked during our visit. A sled comes in handy in winter.

This is my home. Picture taken from the hill in the middle of the previous shot. The structure to the right is an outdoor kitchen. We can't make food on the wood stove inside in the summer, it becomes too hot to sleep if we do. So we built a roof so we don't have to stand in the rain and cook food.
Summary: this was for a school assignment. :)
In September I started a minor which is all about developing your creative talents through various art forms, to discover "the designer in you" (my bachelor is in water management, btw). I'm really enjoying it so far, exciting stuff!
The assignment was preluded by a session where you had to craft several small things from throwaway household materials, and at the end everyone showed their creations. The assignment was then to make something inspired by someone else's creation, but in a way that is "typically you". The idea which sparked this build was a mini tipi tent made from blue cloth on a block of wood. Nothing special in the eyes of the creator, but it was enough to inspire me!
Fun fact: the figure is actually the sigfig of the creator of the tipi. She built it during the LEGO workshop that I gave, also for the minor. Pics of that are on my instagram (@mathijs_dubbeldam_exetrius).
____
Some technical details about the build:
- Built in LEGO Digital Designer
- Finalized in Stud.io
- Decorations (taken from internet) applied in Bricklink Part Designer
- Rendered with Stud.io
- Added background effects in Inkscape
- 1176 pieces, some of which in non-production colour.
That's it, hope you like it! :)
Southeast from the lookout is Lassen Peak, also known as Mount Lassen and the namesake of Lassen Volcanic National Park. At 10,457 feet (3,187 m), it’s the southernmost volcano in the Cascade Mountain Range. Lassen Peak and Mount St. Helens in Washington were the only two volcanoes in the United States to erupt during the 20th century. The lava dome is still considered active to this day.
Hirz Mountain Lookout. Shasta-Trinity National Forest, California.
I bought a truck/camper rig recently, and accidentally picked it up in a photo yesterday morning taken in the Badwater Basin, as a car drove by and lit up the salt flats with its headlights.

Enter our inner sanctum in a van tour like no other. What is Amanda licking? What's in our fridge and will I ever capture that epic shot of Mt Robson?
We show you all there is to see in our Bigfoot Truck Camper and perhaps even some things you wish you hadn't. From power sources to domestic comforts, sani-dumps to workspaces - this is what vanlife in a truck camper looks like for the travelling landscape photographer.
I take advantage of a million photo opportunities and unleash the 100-400mm telephoto lens for some moody mountain mistscapes that you're going to love.
We catch Amanda in the shower, share our bedroom routine and give you the inside scoop on the Fototripper customer service department. It's everything you imagined and more.
Thanks for watching

The town of Agness can be seen in the Rogue River Valley down below. It's named after the daughter of the first postmaster of the town in 1897. Her name was actually Agnes but somebody spelled it wrong on a document and the name stuck. The town received it's mail by mailboat. A mail route that still continues to this day. One of only two rural mail boat routes still operating in the United States. The Illinois and Rogue River intersect near Agness.

"I met an attractive female coyote in those trees over there. So I asked her, 'do you live around here often?'

When the clouds clear away you can see the Pacific Ocean from the lookout.
