A campsite near Morrison Creek in Pike National Forest provides an ideal location for a pre-season backpacking shakedown, offering a short approach with minimal elevation gain to test gear and fitness. Tucked among tall pines and open meadows, the site offers easy access to water and a peaceful setting for refining backpacking setups before tackling longer trails. With its close-in location and gentle terrain, it’s a perfect spot to dial in equipment and trail routines without committing to a strenuous trek. This trip is for BPX members. Please consider joining this fun group if you're not a member already!
A late May hike at Pine Valley Ranch will make for a great start to our day. We will walk along a lake, through a coniferous forest, into a burn area, and across an area flourishing with new growth.
