Sounds like my trip.Horible weather, canopy on the truck too. I thought I was going to have to burn my spare tire to get a fire going and I even brought some dry wood with me. Then we got stuck on the ferry for 22 hours in the lee of some island during a storm on the way back. Bar was closed and they played the Dennis the Menace movie over and over in the lounge. No deer either. Really shit Xmas for sure. Charlottes are great, just not so much in the winter.
