Other nights we pitched our tents at Arctic Camp, cold as blazes; at Craters of the Moon, where the ground bristled with black lava rocks; and at Muddy Camp, which was, uhh . . . muddy. You won't find these nicknames in any cartographer's gazetteer. Then again, you won't find many cartographers here either.
