Day one was rain, rain, and more rain, and some fog. We drove logging roads all the way to the trail head. We were only on the trail for a bit. The next thing you know, we are working our way through the brush. Not lost, but not on the trail. I wip out the orical, get a heading to the lake, and we are off.

Before we get to Shaw Pot we find the trail. We do some quick work on the trail and keep walking. You cross a small creek just before you get to the lake.

I use my Tenkara rod for a few minutes. We pick some garbage out of the Fire ring. And we are off. We take the trail all the way back to the truck..

Day 2 was “dry”. This time I was by myself, so I couldn’t drive up the logging roads. I found the closest gate and I was off. Per google maps you walk the logging road 2.5 miles and make a right turn.

The trail was tight, wet, overgrown, and had some graupel.

After a not so solid 6 hours of sleep Kersee and I are up. A quick breakfast and we are in the road. At the trailhead we are the 3rd car in the parking lot.

We made it to the lookout before sunrise. I set down my pad and made breakfast for Kersee.

I took a few more pictures as people were coming up the stairs. With my morning workout done and a few pics in the camera it was time to go. After a quick walk down to the highway it’s time to look for eagles.
