Mid Hills campground's 26 campsites are all nicely deserted this morning, except for mine

I walk up the road to the nearby water tap and rinse my hair.

I'm not a big fan of campgrounds, but this one is really nice. You can hear your neighbours, if you have any, but you often can't see them due to the rolling terrain and the juniper and pinon pine trees (many of which burned in 2005).
