My buddy George at our camp under McCurdy Park Tower - Lost Creek Wilderness (October 2018)

Pretty sure this night was the coldest I've ever been in a tent. Temps dropped to 18 and the wind blew 20-30 mph all night long. It was pretty, though!

Campsite along Coyote Gulch about 1/2 mile west of Jacob Hamblin

Almost sunset


The moon - one day past full and not yet visible behind camp - lit up the rock face in front

Dry camp up on the slickrock above Hurricane Wash - this was glorious!

That's funny--the once I camped in McCurdy Park was likewise one of the coldest nights I've had. It must have been 15 deg colder than weather.gov predicted. Maybe something about that little area traps in the cold or something?

Weird! We knew it was supposed to be cold, but it tracked way colder there than predicted for us, too - at least 10+ degrees.

It had been really, really cold down in the aptly named Refrigerator Gulch the night before, but despite the climb up it was still way colder at McCurdy Park the next night.
