Most nights we stayed in our camps which had canvas tents on wooden platforms. One of the nigts we went on an overnighter in one of the meadows over the camp and slept under the stars. There were lots of them. The camp had a nice telescope set up to look at the stars and galaxies. Unfortunately there were no planets visible until the early morning. The telescope and presentation were mostly for the benifit of those scouts working on their Astronomy merit badge, but the rest of us could take advantage of the opportunity as well. The Wilderness Survival merit badge also has an over night requirement which Trevor d took advantage of.
