Great backcountry camping and hiking

My grandson and I spent 23-25 June camping at Father Adamz campground.  All of the sites in the campground are level and have adequate shade.  The water available in the parking lot is either from a water fountain or the bathroom sink.  I am glad we brought along our water filtration system as it was only a short hike down to the river to fill up.

The hike in is pretty steep in parts and very rocky.  Definitely a good workout!  The hiking trails are well maintained and the scenery is great.  

 The short hike down to the base of the waterfall is fairly steep and very rocky, but well worth the effort!

Beautiful hike in site

My family and I stayed at father Adams over Easter and it was perfect. The weather was very nice and the sites are well maintained. It’s also only about a half mile down to a swimming hole and water fall perfect for swimming in the summer
