Beautiful Morning Campout
A rocky mountaintop ceded the first light of day to a group of bundled adventurers. They had ended up where many sunrise chasers dream of being: nestled in sleeping bags up high, with a panoramic view of mountains and valleys. The caption is sparse, but the images tell the tale. There's a quiet joy in the moment shared by these strangers. The colorful bags serve as both seat and comfort, while the sunrise sets the tone. Not everyone is a natural sunrise seeker, but I want to know why they keep going. What keeps people coming back for dawn, and this scene?
The Dawn Patrol
Those bags line the mountaintop, but they serve up the real day: the sunrise and the moments thereafter. What keeps them coming back at such an ungodly hour? Mountaineers go to sleep at times that would have turned a farmer's wife inside out back when in the country. There's an in-joke that goes: I'm not crazy for going up mountains at this time of the day. I'm just not a morning person. Few things compare to seeing a sunrise from a dark mountain peak. Especially during autumn, the crisp air and the color of the leaves give you a taste of what waking up in heaven would be like. Alexandra, a seasoned hiker, shared her thoughts with a fellow sunrise adventurer: “I've never seen anything more beautiful than the sun rising over the mountains while I'm camping here.” Decent people wake early, especially if they want to get a good view of the sunrise. The reality, however, is that we cannot all be morning people. Let me tell you: “Morning sunlight on a clear mountain morning is amazing. It lights up the entire area, from the trees to the river below, and gives a speckles of color to the mountains. It’s amazing to wake up in the mountains and see the sunrise from your sleeping bag.”.
Flying too high, to low? Bad weather?

This can help prevent accidents and injuries. It is also a good idea to bring a map and compass or GPS device, just in case you get lost. It is better to be prepared and have a backup plan, than to rely on your memory and intuition. The mountains are home to a variety of wild animals, so it is important to be aware of your surroundings and take precautions to avoid encounters. This includes storing food properly, making noise while hiking, and being prepared to defend yourself if necessary. It is never a good idea to leave food out or leave your door to your vehicle open if you leave your camp. Most of the animals won't bother you if you don't bother them. They are looking for food just like you, so you should be careful and make sure no food scraps are left behind. If you have a situation with a bear, you should know the proper protocol to handle it.
