willow creek
Have visited this river region twice. Once in late summer around dinner time, heading EB Hwy 299, looking for a camp site before dark. We ended up at Douglas. Then I drove through again last winter, Xmas, poured rain for 2 weeks. Snow at 1000' elevation - only 15 miles from the coast. Rainy NorCal weather, plus some. The only hard core campers I saw were river kayakers out @ Independence Creek, Klamath River near Happy Camp CA |
