Ferris Lake Wild Forest

To get to Goldmine Stream Falls, you have to cross three small cricks. This one lacks a bridge, you hope stones to get across it.

As you can see, I added several large rocks and continued to add dirt after this picture was taken, to further improve the access to this campsite.

When I first got to Campsite 14, the driveway up to it was steeply erroded by last years flooding, making it easy for passenger cars and even stock trucks to get hung up. I didn't like how step it was either because I was having trouble getting in and out without four-wheel drive on. So I dredged some material from the drainage ditches, and hauled some heavy rock to build up and smooth the entance to the campsite, so while it's still not perfect -- really needs a culvert -- it should make it a lot easier to get in and out, especilaly for passenger cars. I am hoping the small boulders I put in place along with the ditching I did for rain, will keep this campsite driveway from erroding so quickly in the future.
