"Moraine Lake is a popular camp spot for those climbing South Sister in Oregon. We went during a weekday to attempt to "beat the crowds" and did so somewhat successfully.
The view overlooking both Moraine Lake and South Sister is breathtaking and well worth the short hike to the lake.
If you're feeling up to it, the grueling trek up to the summit of South Sister is unbeatable - just go early to avoid a crowded peak.
Also, close your tent because the chipmunks will steal your food!"
Gear List:
Tent - Sierra Designs Flash 2
Boots - Danner Mountain Light

Halfway to Shasta
If you don’t mind the wintry wind chills, you’re pretty much guaranteed a campspot far away from any traffic and noise as you’re halfway up to the summit of Mt. Shasta.
Good Morning Mount Hood
In our very first Camp Spot feature, we are in awe from Lisa’s perfect opportunity to leave off the rain fly and enjoy the view in the Mt. Hood Wilderness.
