Together with Mirek and my dog, we spend this weekend in a rocky area, north of Prague.
\nHere and there was still some snow, but the temperature was slightly above 0 Celsius.
\nThe landscape was amazing, and in total I made 166 pics, of which you will find here only 52 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this valley we decided to make camp, the tree’s behind us where perfect for the hammocks, and on the right side was a overhanging rock with a sandy place where we could sit and make a fire.
\nWe put our backpacks down, and went for a walk around.

Tree loves rock, or rock loves tree ?

Our backpacks, the hairball, and the overhanging rock for our afternoon \/ evening fire.

Time to set up camp, but this can’t be done without a nice cigar to celebrate the fine location we found.
\n\"fatwood_hike_17\"<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With some fresh found fatwood, knife and fire steel, the flame needed for the cigar was quickly made.
\nMy meat plate served as flat & dry surface since everything else was wet.

This bad boy I saved a special occasion that happened recently, so tonight I decided to enjoy it.
\n\"fatwood_hike_29\"<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

First some bacon, then some pork steak, and finishing it of with the cigar made it all complete.
\n\"fatwood_hike_30\"<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next morning. I slept in my 3 season sleeping bag, the temperatures didn’t go very low, my best guess was around 4+ celsius. But the whole evening and night there was a constant fresh breeze going through the valley, and therefore I had my jacket around my foot end to protect my hammock from the wind, and inside I had a bottle of hot water with spruce needles, to keep my feet warm. Result is that I slept good, and had some fresh warm needle tea in the morning.

While Mirek was still sleeping, I went for a walk around with the dog. The morning was quite dry, till I started walking.. first slight rain, the big heavy drops.

On the menu was melted cheese, juicy bacon en toasted bread.
\n\"fatwood_hike_41\"<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I still needed a spoon for my billycan set, so I took a piece of birch and started carving.
\nAnd also time to continue the bad boy.

In the village where we parked was no pub open, so in the next village I had a nice cold beer and a juice for Mirek.
