A Quick Trip to The Ridge

There is short backpack trip to Sky Camp which is litereally on the ridge.  You are in the Point Reyes National Seashore up on a ridge.  Beautiful views when there is no fog - but expect fog.

I like the sites under the trees rather than those in the open.  The sites have space between them so you do feel alone. Typical sites wiht tables and food lockers as well as fire ring.  You will need to walk in your wood as there is no wood gathering allowed.

My only issue with the campground is that unless you using it as a stop over to another site - like Coast Camp there is not much to do.  Other than hang out there is not much to do here - you can continue to hike down the mountain but then you have to hike back up.  I use it to get away for a day or two to un wind and read.

When there is no fog there are great sunsets. Also if you like huckleberries - the trail is lined with them.
