This is a nice campground - 5 sites, picnic table and fire ring at each, pit toilet, no water. Far enough from the highway to avoid most road noise. Two nice meadows, saw deer on 2 days. Some of the campsites suffer from lack of shade due to tree removal, so consider bringing a pop up.

KP South Fork, KP North Fork, Ackre Lake, then trying to loop out.

KP South and North Fork are clear of downed trees and the forest service continues to work on erosion control on these trails. In general these seemed to be in fairly good shape and I saw a trail crew when hiking, so the FS is continuing to try to improve the conditions.

Water in both forks and flowing nicely near the confluence. It dries up quickly moving up North Fork.

Ackre Lake is a lovely little pond, probably my favorite find of the trip. Trying to make a recommended loop out of Ackre lake proved a horrible decision, but I did make it back to the highway.
