    The thread in the Philosophy & Technique forum got me thinking about some of my favorite campsites with a view, so I figured I'd start this thread for people to post photos of their favorites. I'll start with a few that I have handy.

    Nice photos. It was about 40 years ago that I was in the Humphrey's Basin. Great area, just how I (ahem!) remember it.

    I'm not consistent on bringing a camera or taking pictures, but thought I could jump in with a sampling from over the years…

    Back in college (Winona State) I got bored in the dorms and decided on an open-air bivy atop the local landmark "Sugarloaf" overlooking the town.

    A couple canoe country sites: sunrise on Jasper Lake and early morning fog on Argo Lake, different trips in Quetico.

    Two from atop a ridge with great views toward Glacier Peak in Washington (my brother took these).

    He brought the tent for him and his dog and I brought the tarp and we made a palace:

    Finally, my best campsite last summer on the Superior Hiking Trail:

    morning in the emigrant wilderness april 2005. A little more snow that year. This campsite on top of approximately 16 feet of snow (as per official snow survey measurement close by within a few days), and with about 4" of fresh overnight.

    That bridge looks a lot like the one over the outlet of Garnet Lake… That would be my guess.

    I've done lots of beautiful trips here in the Kodiak Archipelago. Here is camp #2 and #3 from one of the hikes I did across the island:

    I think it's pretty cool to be high in the alpine and almost always be able to see the ocean.

    It was some OR singlewall shelter thing (Nighthaven?) I used for that trip, and that trip only. I hated it (too low, lots of condensation, floppy pitch) and it went away.
