This is the campsite I stayed at Big Pond.

This is one of eight designated campsites around Big Pond. They are free to use, but are limited to 6 people, and you can only stay at one site for 3 nights without a permit.

As I am making breakfast on this Sunday morning in the Catskills.

Looking out the window of tent prior to dawn, with a little smoke from the fire still smoldering, and lots of fog.

Yes, the beer cans are empty, and I am using that pot to boil water for coffee, because I left the coffee pot in the truck. I doesn't matter much because I use a coffee press to make the actual coffee.

This is while I'm making coffee and getting ready for the day.

Out before the crack of dawn, dropping their line and testing their luck on Big Pond.
