The night was cold. I wore my long johns, my fleece hat and had my sleeping bag closed up snugly. Even so, I was chilly at times. When I finally rose, the sky was clear. A moderate frost had covered the landscape. My water bottles were still unfrozen, however.

I retrieved my bear can from the brush where I had stashed it. It, too, was covered in thick frost.
