Dean Leone, A.K.A. the Dutch Eagle, is a Carbon County legend. He took us to his "camp" today, to show us his handiwork.
Dean does a lot of trailwork, and he likes to camp in the woods. He made this oven with remnants of an old stove and the foundation of an ancient house. He actually camps here in the winter by making a fire and sleeping above the coals on the old bedframe he rebuilt from green wood and copper wire from the Gorge. His camp is just above the Gorge on his Lost Hollow downhill.
In this photo, he is explaining the merrits of camping all winter on this freaking contraption.
This is the real deal -- if you know Dean, you know that even I could not make this up.
