Charles C Deam Wilderness


Well, back at Deam again this weekend. This trip was with my girlfriend. We started out at the Blackwell Horsecamp and went along the Cope Hollow Trail for a while. We trailblazed up Cope Hollow, looking for mushrooms along the way. Didn't find any morels, but it may be a bit early. We saw plenty of what we though were devils urns though. We found a nice spot along the a creek to set up camp. There's been plenty of rain, so the creek was flowing well. We smoked too much hiking and by the time we made camp were sorta out of it. We ended up crashing out at about 8:30 and sleeping until 9:00 the next day. We packed up before the rain started, but it didn't last very long. We hiked the last couple miles to the Horsecamp for a total of about 9.5 miles between the two days.
