Designated burn going on
Was going to camp here on 4/15/2021, but there was what appeared to be from signage, a controlled burn going on at the entrance to Forest Road 150. There was too much smoke at the entrance of the forest road, so decided to just camp elsewhere along 152.
Update: Went back to FR 150 the next day and drove up to campsite. The designated burn area ends about 4-6 miles before the campsite. Area is quiet, and road can get rough for low clearance, non 4WD vehicles. Very quiet, and a nice little mountain stream running through it. Decided to make a quick car lunch, and hike around and explore. Decided not to camp due to concerns about smoke settling down in the canyons at night, but I’ll definitely be back another time.
