Canyon Creek Camp (Washington)
A nice FS campground, but very busy and somewhat neglected
Giant trees, lots of people, trash in the bushes right on the creek
Spiffy Mike May 2008, and a sign of poor quality
Eva and Mike Canyon Creek May 2008
Lots of logging in the area. Driving down the many logging spurs finds impacted, yet lovely recovering forests of alder and young firs of every kind.

Grouse-Huxley 4611 Camp
The edge of the known wilderness in a sea of historic logging, this camp sits at the end of a barely-road, due to be commissioned. Nature may do it first.

Anthony Terian Paige Marc look for old trails July 2008
Way out in the middle of the wilds on terrible roads, this camp is often little-attended. For some reason 2008 was highly attended, big crowd around the fire.

Pyramids Camp - Willamette N.F.
A nice little "user-camp" in the Willamette, just south of the Mt. Hood N.F. One of the most cut-over forests in the country, and also the last great old-growth stronghold
Stephan and Troy and weird dog Sept 2008
Stephan and Troy looking for the old trail, 3 Pyramids Sept 2008
A tiny spider bite from this forest gave me chills, numb lips and a body rash for a day

Colin really nailed the short shorts. in his drawing. I finally remember where I set my PBR down. Can you find it?
ReplyDeleteI still remember thinking what the hell am I doing going down that road to Grouse-Huxley. Never was sure I was on the right road till I saw Mamma Bus. Not like there was a way to turn around anyway. Once in you had to commit to the end.
