Night 16: Johnson Valley in the storm.
yeap… my friends and i need to work on our decision making skills lol
I think there are plenty of cultural references to “bad decisions make good stories” - looks like that one is on the good story side
oh no we really had a rough night. all of us barely slept because rain and wind picked up through the night. imagine marble sized rain hitting the side of the GFC (because of the strong wind) and then splashing into the tent soaking the mattress to the point water dripped down onto the Decked drawer.
not GFC’s design flaw though, I really don’t think the side “doors” and windows are rated for a tropical storm with wind that strong.
we did have the option to cancel the one nighter but then we looked at the weather report and were like “meh… how bad can 0.5in of rain be” LOL
But - you’ll talk about it around the campfire for years to come!
more like
“um i think we need a third party opinion on this because i don’t trust our decision making skills anymore after that time”
