Buying Firewood. There is this great place for campfire wood on Cedar River Plains Road, about 8 miles in. You get a lot of wood for $5.

Cab Full of Firewood. The seat and floor boards where stacked with firewood. It kept me going for the next 4 days, although I really didn’t have big fires until the last day when I was up at Mountain Pond. That may have violated DEC firewood regulations, at moving the wood 60 miles, but too bad. It’s my wood.

Wild Blueberry Fields. I decided I wanted to drive up there from Cedar River Flow, to eat some, because I knew they would be in peak. This is an hour away (or 15 miles away at 15 MPH), up in the sandy plains of Moose River Plains from Cedar River Flow. These are some of the best blueberry fields in the Adirondacks, and despite being in season for three weeks and very popular, still have many berries to pick.

Blueberries. All I can say is delicious. And so numerous, as you look around all you see is blueberries.

Helldiver Pond in Evening . Watching the sun set over Mitchell Ponds Mountain.

Moose River Plains Road After Dark. It’s an interesting road to drive after dark, being so narrow, twisty, and rough, especially after drinking all day.

Camping at Site 8. This is down by the Wakely Dam. The prior day I spent paddling around Cedar River Flow and up the river a ways.

Picnic Table. I have yet to pick up my gear. It took a while to figure out which trees to use to set up the site, but ultimately with the steel poles, I got it set up.

Kayak Tying Down Tarp. I couldn’t quite figure out how to keep the tarp tied down. I tried to use a wood stake, but it kept pulling out of the ground. The kayak worked well for this purpose.

Packed Up and Ready To Go. See I’m all packed up and ready to go. Kayak is on the roof, and the site is all cleaned up. I don’t leave a mess or do ny kind of damage to site. Anything unburnt in the fire pit, I haul out.

Heading Across Wakely Dam. It certainly is not a real pretty morning out there. So be it.

Cedar River Flow Campsite No 8. It’s a pretty descent basic little campsite. Now off to Owls Head Mountain Firetower.
