Oh yeah!

Between the katabatic-cooled oilcan and the high octane bourbon Dave
packed, we were kata-tonic by the time we crawled into the bags!
Got a great pic of Bill tippin' the ol' flask for those who'd like to
see it! ;)
(I'm gonna get Bill in trouble...)

But- To keep things "on-topic":

Cibbet's Flat is an awesome developed campsite 1/4 mile off the PCT
below Long Canyon! Maybe 16-18 miles from Morena Reservoir.
Fire rings & grilles, Picnic tables, water faucets and PIT TOILETS...
Living large on the PCT!

A great alternative to making Burnt Ranchiera in one day.

If it weren't for the katabatic rain we experienced, we'd be singing
kumbaya aroud a campfire there!

one good consequence of katabatic winds... :)



> Suffice it to say that it can get darn tootin' cold around Campo!
(When I pulled my oilcan out at Cibbetts, it was colder than if I pulled
it out of my refrigerator!)
