Hooked up and ready to travel.
Total drive time was about 2 hours. Vernonia is a sleepy logging town nestled in the coast range. We passed the logging road once and had to turn around. We found the locked gate and proceeded up the gravel road. Little did I know that Lorelei was getting nervous as she realized how isolated we were going to be camping.
After a mile on the bumpy road we neared our destination. This property has nearly a thousand acres and five lakes and we were the only ones there!
We set up camp in a nice spot. We heard a very interesting SCREECHING sound in the middle of the night?
Then it was time to fish. I was trying out fly fishing for the first time and to my surprise I caught two trout!
The trailer worked great (except the fridge was not cold running on propane).
Now this is roughing it.
Saturday morning we got out and walked around all of the lakes. There is some abandoned logging equipment along the road, so Lorelei hopped in for a test drive.
Beautiful scenery. Lorelei took these next three.
Not to be out-done in the fish catching department, Lorelei got serious and pulled in this nice rainbow!
We had a great trip. A few bugs to work out with the trailer and we hope to be on the road again soon!
