Praire Creek to Fern Canyon - Redwood National Forest - Day 1

Plan a trip.

It's a good four hour drive from our home in Ukiah, but I invite you to join me hiking my favorite places as day trips during my summer vacation.

Today we'll hike from Prairie Creek to the coast and back. It's about a 12 mile hike, mostly flat, on uneven ground in the dark woods. The picture is Fern Canyon, the turn around spot. We'll do a loop.

I have lots of stories of being at Redwood National Park and have been intrigued in going back since learning that one of our meetup people does regular camping at Prairie Creek.

Please join me at Redwood National Park. I'll be arriving August 1 and leaving August 6, I reserved a campground for two at Elk Country rv resort, Tent camping in #96. Not everyone camps, but if you like to join me on day hikes, I have a lot of experience in this area. I would love to share my favorite locations. I'll be posting pictures here. I can recommend staying in motels in Trinidad, Arcata, if you prefer hoteling to camping.
