Ash Creek was the crown jewel but it is gone and I had no desire to walk in black sticks. While this area has had its fires too it has been a while and one can still walk on the pine duff lined trail under living trees. Trail was overgrown in quite a few spots; no problem to follow. The views are great. Where it starts to drop off in sight of West Peak as I like to do left the vague trail and roamed around to get views from ridgelines. Comical part in head high ferns of the "fern forest" as I call it a buck deer and I looked at each other; our seemingly disembodied heads floating above the green. He bounded away crushing ferns as he went. I saw not another person on this trail, and that is the norm for me here it seems.
When I started not a cloud in the sky and it ended with distant thunder and a light cold sprinkle on my sun heated skin. Very nice. Had a great evening in my favorite campsite--- |
