Draw Creek Camp - August 16-19 2018

Post by hambone » Sun Jul 29, 2018 6:35 pm

Oh yeah a good one, one of my favorites. You may know it by other names, but it's a rose regardless.
Thurs-Sun, possibly even Monday.
Deep in the wilderness, 8 miles down a terrible one lane road! Bears! Solitude!

224 past Estacada
Pass Ripplebrook
Left (N) on 57
twist like mad
Left (N) on 58 (before the gravel)
Right (E) at High Rock, stay on 58
go a zillion miles, see Timothy Lake below to your right
About 3 miles past FS RD 5880, turn LEFT on FS240
Go about five miles on 240 until you see 240 branch off to the left and change from gravel to dirt, take 240 left and continue to road's end. Take it easy on 240 it is a narrow old road. 1st gear!

You can also come in on US26 past Mt. Hood, get off at FS42 to 58. Beware multiple road closures affecting that route!

Watch for orange signs, there may be a couple if the vandals don't steal them...
