We each had a backpacker meal (1.5 servings) and were still hungry so we cooked a third meal of black beans. We shared about half of it before we were stuffed. I was thirsty but didn't drink much because I didn't want to have to tinkle during the night. I tucked all of our food and smelly stuff into the ammo box since there were plenty of big-eared furry friends at this place too.
It was SO quiet. We thought we heard other campers coming in... but when I went up to use the pit toilet just after dark there was no one there. We're still not sure if we had company or not. Creepy.
That night we traded blankets - I got Jesse's sleeping bag and he took my sleeping bag and blanket. His sleeping bag has a hood - like a parka - that I turned in-side-out over my sleeping pad. Our tent was a little tilted so our feet were downhill and I felt like a baby marsupial hanging in my sleeping bag from the inverted hood. It was quite warm and cozy. A couple of times during the night I thought the wind was going to pick up (radioactive Santa told us the wind was so strong that it had torn his tent the night before) but it didn't.
