Hiking in Big Sur

Oct 29, 2009 12:31

Some time ago now... I went hiking for two days in Big Sur with Jordan and my housemates Phil and Max. It was really awesome. We camped one night in a campground under a lovely live oak tree, the next day we hiked 11 miles into Sykes Camp which sounds more formal than the camp we came to--which was pretty much some sandbanks along a river and a few beautifully built hot springs. The previous summer there had been a huge forest fire there, and just a couple days before we arrived there was a huge flood. I think whatever may have been there a year prior had been completely wiped out. But anyway--it was lovely nonetheless. After a few good soaks in the hot springs and a night sleeping on a sandbar, we hiked the 11 miles back out the next day.
