| no partners | | Day 1 of backpack to Charlebois spring area. Cloudy weather during bluff springs and terrapin gave way to hot and sunny on dutchman. Huge pool of water right off of Dutchman near bull pass trail.
Set up camp just before path to Charlebois spring, south of the wash (or river in today's case!). Given our Saturday arrival, all the camping spots near the spring were taken. About 6 tents. We looked around for the master map, but no luck! Will look again next time! The water in the spring trough looked disgusting. I didn't go all the way up to the spring as we didn't want to tromp through everyone's campsites, but they mentioned there was a big pool up there. We filtered water that was flowing through La Barge Canyon. There was so much water in the canyon!
Some light drizzle started right at sunset. A harbinger of the massive rain and wind to come later at night.
The charlebois spring area is glorious! So great to spend a night there.  |
