Gotta earn the views

I was FREAKED out on the way in. 12 miles down a very rocky dirt road. Ripped one of the side steps off the truck😬 High clearance is a must. Didn’t see a single person the whole way in and the scenery is very dull until you get into the canyon. But WOW, once you get back there it’s amazing. Weather was nice and cool, there’s a beautiful little stream with fish in it!!!!!!!!! We were the only people out there the first night, one other group of campers the second night. Really very secluded and quiet.

Beautiful and Quiet

Fairly technical trail to do in my stock Crosstrek, highly recommend something tall if you plan on going into the canyon. But the canyon is very quiet and cool at night which made for some good camping.

Dispersed Camping

Took the travel trailer up Carpenter Canyon on a whim, since we did have a trailer with us we couldn’t get all the way to the stream. Ended up pulling off the side of the road, very secluded with a lovely view. It was cold though, thankfully we were prepared in the trailer.
