Setting up Camp Outline –When –Where –What Exum Guides camp, Lower Saddle, Grand Teton

When A good spot early is better than a bad spot late You might want to spread out and search for a spot Remember it takes time to setup camp, eat dinner, clean up… It gets dark pretty fast

Where (1) Flat spot in the woods, or sheltered area from wind. In The white Mtns –below treeline in summer –above treeline only if on top of 2ft of snow(?) –within 200ft of trail –within 1/4 mi of streams or AMC huts

Good View is nice. You don’t always need a tent.

How important is a flat spot?

How Important is this wind stuff? If possibly windy make sure you have walls. You might collapse the tent when not in it. You don’t always need guy lines.

Be prepared for some loving care Chaffing can break guy lines Snow can accumulate Broken branches? Flying debris

Where (2) Make sure you divide the cooking, toilet, and sleeping Also specify area for snow collection Make sure the back of the tent faces windward

DO and DON’Ts DO NOT Clear vegetation DO NOT Make ditch around tent DO spread the snow or make sure people can’t tell you’re your tent was DO NOT leave a trace (the spies won’t be able to follow you)

What (1) You can do many things at once First thing, is start melting snow (takes a lot of time >10 minutes) Also collect snow in a black trash bag for more water –It takes a lot of snow in volume to produce a lot of water Setup tents, spread sleeping bags

What (2) House Rules –Do not walk on booties (you can sleep easily) –Do not bring boots inside tent, easy to get snow inside tent –Brush snow out of tent –If snowing through the night, you might have to shake off accumulating snow off the tent

Keep the camp clean and tidy Snow can cover your stuff in no time. Do not leave stuff around. Think big wall rotated 90 degrees, always have your stuff inside or clipped to something so it cannot blow away nor be covered with snow (unless is inside your vestibule)

Sunset on Camp Shurman, Mount Rainier (two of the tents were blown down) After you are done, you can enjoy…
