The DCV hike into the Juniper Flats ACEC was an experience. The ancestral home of the Amutcakaiem clan of the mountain people has been habitated for 10,000 years or so according to scientific studys. Deep Creek Hot Springs has been used as a spiritual retreat for a long long time. Since it was windy and cold, textiles prevailed on the hike and a consensus was aggreed upon to meet at a local pizza place for the meeting after the meeting. We all celebrated and ate pizza, enjoying the gathering of our DCV tribe. With a little luck, we will celebrate our next gathering back in the warm healing waters of the hot springs.
