>>2776995no, sorry! i took none, i was too busy working on my camping spot and just enjoying the outdoors, but also, phone was off, intentionally. I want to be away from the modern world when i go out.
this last outing of mine was for reconnaissance to make this camping spot campable and scout the surrounding area, mostly for water (lots of beautiful cascades found and even a spring!!! drank from all, totally pure)
my creation was a simple small oval hut, made from some ruins of what was probably once a sheepfold, could sleep 3 or 4. needed a lot of repairs and fallen stones putting back, lacking any chisels or hammers my stones were not as neat as that pic, but they don't have to be. you will find that stones "set" in a certain position and when they are set, they are super solid, but every stone may be balancing against every other by only 3 points, making a stable tripod. did my best to lay the stones as in the above pic; long length into the wall, not along it.
one thing no one talks about in making a camping spot is levelling ground.
as many of you may know, sleeping on a slant is kind of horrible and you end up sliding down it.
i took an entrenching tool and used it as a hoe to dig from the high ground and move that to the low, any rocks i dug out I returned to the wall.
to keep it dry inside, water will need to be diverted, means I will have to dig a moat. no one talks about it again, but most houses in wet places have a small ditch dug around them to divert water, they each stand on a little island. they would be damp inside without that.
When you build a hut this is probably something to consider, as I and many others have had our camp spots rained out, and not by the downpour from which we were sheltered, but by the water which begins to flow in under the tarp.
