Day 8 The Valley

The Valley  6x6 Oil on Panel

Have you ever been up hiking and you look down and see the perfect place to camp?  I did, but it wasn't in the valley, it was on the next ridge.  I wanted to camp there and watch the sun rise and see what was on the other side.  On my way to this ridge I took water from the muddiest, stinkiest cow water hole.  It was all I could find.  I filter it with a bandanna and a Steri Pen.
