Better late than never. Jeff I and celebrated 5 years of marriage on April 21 and we thought a camping trip would be an appropriate way to spend the occasion. We left Friday after work and drove to the Laguna Mountain Recreation Area in the Cleveland National Forest. We decided to avoid organized campgrounds and choose instead to find camping spots along a small road that weaved through the mountains. Above is a photo of our first campsite. The sun was just coming up over the mountains and hadn't yet illuminated our tent.
Later that morning we went for a hike along the creek as it wound through this beautiful meadow. We picked a spot out in the meadow a bit further from the road that will be our next camping spot. It will require a walk, but is still short enough that we could easily do it with Quinn.
Quinn is an avid hiker. We had a blast!
Our second campsite was under a big oak tree that attracted all kinds of warbler. This Wilson's Warbler was a frequent visitor.
And here is a Black-throated Gray Warbler.

Our camps were very close to a popular mountain biking trail (the Noble Canyon Trail). Jeff and Quinn had a nice evening ride on part of the trail.
Just a few parting shots
