| partners | | I originally located this great vehicle single or group campsite on a previous May'13 week of camping-hike exploring at the upper end of FR235, up from the Billy Lawrence TH. I did an edit soon after returning to add a HAZ Hike Guide for this new vehicle camping location thinking I would be back here soon to camp. Other HAZ members did soon camp here and now six and one-half years later I finally did too 
HAZ-Oregon_Hiker (Larry) and I had big plans for this 7-8 day trip to explore a number of areas between this FR235, FR410 (The Reynolds Creek TH), and FR487 (Upper Workman Creek Rd). I decided to arrive a day earlier on Wed-10/23 to take my time putting-up time consuming "Camp Grasshopper" so I would have some free time for a nice breakfast and other needed camp duties prior-to Larry's arrival, late morning on Thurs-10/24. Arriving a day early also allowed me to be ready for the first planned short hike exploration with Larry after his arrival.
This trip HAZ-friendofThundergod (Lee), Blanco, and friend (Katie) with her two pups had plans to join us for the weekend period with Larry, Lee, and Katie planning to do a serious hike (Deathmarch-Bushwhack) in on the Moody Point Trail #140 to an area (Uppermost Moody Point) that had been on our radar for over two years. Since I had plans to remain in camp most of this entire Sat-10/26 after a short hike in from the Billy Lawrence TH for a short distance on the Lucky Strike Tr 144, I had previously planned to prepare a hardy, hot, home cooked Grasshopper meal for all since their day hike, leaving camp before dawn at 5:30am and not arriving back until sunset at 5:30pm, I knew they would appreciate it [ photo ] . We also had a fresh tossed salad with dressing, Italian bread, and chocolate chip-nut-coconut cookies for dessert! 
The 8 day temps for late October was not that cold/windy at night-early morning except for our last night and departure day Wed-10/30 which was wicked brutal (see last two pic captions on my photoset).
Overall I can confirm this is an awesome vehicle campsite  with another rewarding visit to our Sierra Ancha Wild. |

with another rewarding visit to our Sierra Ancha Wild.
We saw no wildlife until the drive home when we spotted one coyote and then lower down one of the group saw 4 javelina. Stopped at Los Hermanos on the way back
