Back in my "hobo" days (those 2 1/2 years before I started college), I slept away from organized campsites all of the time.  Had to move once or twice, but never had any trouble otherwise.....however, this was back in the mid to late '70's.

I don't do that anymore, because I have more money now.

Pic of my savage. I camped at the pull off near Moccasion campground. I still remember the truck pulled in late at night with their dog that was barking at me from behind the mound of dirt that I was camped at. I overheard them saying their boat broke down. It was smoking hot as it commonly is at Don Pedro Lake.

All these years later I've yet to find that seasonal water fall I stopped at in 2013. This year after a decade I might find it because of all the snow melt.

Nice pictures, and I like your style of awakening an 11 year-old thread.
