Nobody was around our location of the campground. Everyone wanted to be at the end or back where it was dark and wet.
We were at site 2, which is located across from the camp host site and near the exit and entrance. Not even the camp host had arrived for the first weekend of the season.
That's correct! Nobody was around us. It was like we had the entire campground to ourselves. Just the way we like it, peace and quiet.
When we camped here last fall, this creek wasn't flowing. This is close to the entrance to the campground. We could hear this creek and the river from our site, a very soothing sound.
Luckily for us, a very large group of off-road vehicles had finished their touring of the road we wished to hike. They were all parked at the day-use area, Sourgrass, when we headed up the road to explore what mother-nature had created.
We were surprised at the numerous seasonal creeks that we encountered. Last fall the road was dry and there was only one creek to cross.
This is what the creek looked like in the fall.
And this is what the creek looks like this spring. We couldn't even cross the creek to continue on the road.
So as we headed back, we enjoyed the waterfalls.
One creek had numerous falls. If we were younger and willing to climb up the hill, it would have been fun to explore those falls too.
After a relaxing evening and a peaceful sleep, we explored other areas of the campground and found this snow plant hiding under a young pine.
The path under the bridge lead to this swollen creek. We didn't feel like crossing what looks to be a slippery bridge.
So instead, we crossed the bridge and explored a portion of the trail across from the day-use area before heading back to camp for lunch and breaking camp. Next time we visit here we will explore the rest of that trail.
