One thing you did not have to bring any pots and pans on this trip. That rotary spit does a great job. I have to get one. I usually use branches but this is much better and the steel rod going through the meat helps cook the inside. It is too bad you cannot leave that shelter up for other overnighters. You put a lot of work into it. Happy adventures and all the best!

    When we were kids, my pal and I constructed a hut from branches held together with string, and covered all the gaps with moss just like this. We raided the local rubbish dump for items with which to furnish our little cabin. Never spent the night there though. Now I shudder to think of all the critters that lived in that moss...... Hope you are better now.
