We had a pretty good weekend. Went to Quartzite and did about 250 miles on the X3. We had 5 cars good food and good people.  I was having so much fun I didn’t take that many pictures.  The Slappy had a great time. He was on the lookout for for the local critters. He didn’t spot a thing other than Locust/Grasshoppers. I hope everyone had a safe and fun weekend.

Went camping in Utah.  Was up as high as ~9400 feet, I think camp was more like 7k-something but still cold over night (high teens).

That's awesome! Did you use some sort of heater at night?
I was in my little trailer, but it has no heater... and no insulation underneath.  I'm sure it was warmer than just being in a tent (like the other two guys were) but not by much.  The condensation inside the trailer had turned to ice by the morning.  The next time I camp in weather this cold in this trailer I'll be a little better prepared.

Right now the mattress is just some foam.  It isn't the best, because it packs down and you really feel the cold from the "floor."  One of these would fit perfectly: https://www.exped.com/usa/en/product-category/mats/megamat-max-duo-15-lw and provide a much better thermal barrier.  A heavy blanket over that, combined with the top blanket I was using and I think it would have been super comfy.  As it was, it wasn't terrible considering the temps.
