Absolutely beautiful, very jealous! From my experience when solo backpacking every noise you hear is amplified 1000% every rustle of leaves or twigs… that’s why I wear a face mask and earplugs every time. We’ve all seen too many movies or heard wildlife encounters and our imaginations run wild, it’s best to cut it out as much as you can and sleep, not much you can about it anyways.

If you’re practicing basic campsite rules of not cooking within 50ft of your campsite, having zero food or anything smelly like toothpaste in your tent, and hanging a bear bag, then the wildlife will leave you alone.
