After a morning scouting camping spots (based largely on cell reception) we found a nice spot on the way to Ashurst Lake, off of Lake Mary Road, twenty miles south of Flagstaff.
Our site allows for plenty of solar exposure, yet gives us some shade and privacy courtesy of low pine trees.
View to the east -- we have a few dozen bovine neighbors!
Co-pilot and chase vehicle. Both trusty. :-)
View to the south with satellite dish dialed-in.
Looking southwest at dusk.
Our internet service is provided through HughesNet hardware, adapted for a mobile lifestyle using a tripod and an adjustable mounting base. My web page request (for example) travels 23,000 miles to a satellite in geosynchronous orbit...and is then relayed another 23k miles to the main HughesNet operations center where it is finally routed to its intended destination. Then the web page (or whatever) that I requested comes back via the same path. Neat-o!
Looking west at sunset. End of day 1. :o)
