Great report. I have a few pictures of Bobcat footprints on the other side of Hwy 173. A few days before Thanksgiving I decided to do a section of the PCT. I started at the spillway and 173 heading north or towards the 15 fwy. It was late in the day when I got on the trail. I only hiked for 3 hrs when it started to get dark, I set up camp, I have no idea where,,,,but it was before Silverwood Lakby dadinpain - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
First off I think we all need to take this slow and make sure all the facts are covered. As far as the trails.....Here is a site that gives free maps on just this subject. http://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/!ut/p/c5/04_SB8K8xLLM9MSSzPy8xBz9CP0os3gjAwhwtDDw9_AI8zPwhQoY6IeDdGCqCPOBqwDLG-AAjgb6fh75uan6BdnZaY6OiooA1tkqlQ!!/dl3/d3/L2dJQSEvUUt3QS9ZQnZ3LzZfMjAwMDAwMDBBODBPSEhWTjJNMDAwMDAwby dadinpain - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California

Sorry to hear that more jerks had to ruin it for others........so this is my question. Does the freedom trail parking area belong to the Bowmans? Is it their property? Next....just because you have to pass the ranch to park....do they feel it's not right to pay them and just pass by? and head down the road to a free area? First off I have never been to the ranch and don't even know the lay oby dadinpain - Deep Creek Hot Springs, Apple Valley, California
I found this on another site also.....although I do own a few hand guns and carry when I am backpacking, I try NOT to draw attention to myself.....on the other hand, I don't know why anyone would bring a rifle to the springs. To each is own. I carry a LOADED* handgun EVERYTIME I am hiking/camping in the national forest. I carry it openly and visible (right out in front).
