Arizona White sycamore (Plantanus wrightii) found mostly by rivers and canyons in central southern Arizona. Can grow over 100' with a 10' base.

Spent 3 days trekking thru the Texas hill country. River is the Colorado and big body of water(if its visible in the pics) is Lake Buchanan. It was a camping/hiking/hunting trip(going for Auodad and Spanish goats in the cliffs). Many hogs were killed. Plus the tail of a rattler I killed!

Very cool picture

Looking at your set up I would consider ladder extensions.

Here is how I do camping. Just throw everything easy to steal on the rack and the heavy cooler and tool box next to the vehicle. The cruiser is plenty big enough for me and the girl to sleep in comfortably so I prefer that. Plus if I want to go in luxury (or not have the aforementioned girlfriend complain after a couple nights) I throw the air mattress in the back.

Tripod and a long exposure, looks like 30 seconds for that awesome pic!

I spent a couple days camping around Mt Fuji. Both nights I stayed at a small lake called Lake Shojiko and made a full day traveling the back roads around the Fuji highlands. Usually this area isn't open because it's all military land and they use it for artillery practice.

Epically beautiful pictures there. One day I will actually make it out to Japan.

Hey...come on over!! The tent is one of these. I think it's the DA1 model and fits the 80 very well especially if you don't have a roof rack.
