Although I spent two months driving across country once, and camped the entire time ... this was a few years ago, but I can see how that would skew an average that included a lot of people who camped for a night and then went home. ( Or "slept in dirt," as a good friend would put it. ) Where was the photo at the top of this post shot? It looks very, very much like Olallie Lake in Washington. The lake itself, the bare ( rock slide debris ) area in the background, surrounding peaks, and even the "beach" area are all uncannily similar to what I remember from my last hike ... the main difference is that I didn't get such nice weather.
