It was a nice backpacking campsite. There was a steady water supply. Had a couple small waterfalls close by. Not a typical weekend campsite, but great for those hiking or riding horses.

About a 4 mile hike in. Good water source near the camp, but heavy horse traffic walking in and the grill is broke in the fire pit. However somebody left a really comfortable bushcraft a-frame chair.

Loved it. Great water source. Easy trail. Too many horses in the trail.
