Everyone knows you need woods for camping, not mountains.

The base of the mountains have woods.

Perfect starry night + moonlight on the mountains + total quiet + booze + whatever-else-you-bring

HMMMMMMM.

I need to go again in August.

England's not big enough to have total quiet anywhere (well there are only 3 places in the country free from traffic noise)

And I'm camping in August... at Reading Festival! Not exactly quiet.

Mountains generally have trees on them, to a certain height (it's called the treeline, strangely enough)

and yuo don't need a fier to be camping

in fact, often it is not a good idea in the summer

Perfect camping = an island with trees (mostly coniferous, but some deciduous) on a small lake in the mountains.

**Asher** · July 29, 2003, 11:27

Campfires are always a good idea!

We never have that problem here.

A campout with a fire is like a day without sunshine.

And who the hell is going to volunteer to gather wood, from base OR treeline?
Go on. Answer me that one.
Bunch of drunks and stoners.

Why would you camp if not drunk or stoned?

**KrazyHorse** · July 29, 2003, 11:32

I typed in "camping texas" into Google image search.

The first two images were maps. The third was this:
