another trip

Well seeins how this first 4by meet was a rather fun success and it was brought to my attention I owe you guys a bbq event I was thinkin of hosting/organizing one.
The catch is if I do there cant be wafflers your in or you aint it'll be an overnighter and it'll be more difficult then what we just did.
One of my favorite destinations is the hotsprings way up the east side of Harrison (not the hotel). I dont camp at them as theres not alot of space and the spots can be taken up. I camp about 30kms away from them and then just cruise up whenever.
The road to where base camp is set up in no more difficult then the Elaho trip from there stockers not wanting to scratch skidplates and lower bumpers can carpool with the more prepared vehicles.

Gimmie your input people.

sounds like you're heading up to clear creek hotsprings on the east side of harrison.

where do you make basecamp? at cogburn?

iirc you can make it up to clear creek with a stocker and some correct application of the skinny peddle without damage.

sounds like it'll be fun.

I'd be setting up base camp at the beach across from Lesters. About ten kn's after Cogburn and just before the airstrip. Lester is the hermit that lives up at the log sort.
It'll be a friday afternnon evening till sunday trip.

stock f150 will make it. the main fsr, harrison east, is graded regularly due to high logging traffic. at most she'll just need to go slow and pay attention for idiots.

havent been up clear creek for a long while but iirc, a stock 3rd gen 4runner can make it up no problem so i'd imagine with a bit of careful driving an f150 should make it too.

here's some footage of harrison east with shots of the road up to clear creek:


not sure which beach phil's talking about. i have a feel i've been to it just dont recall the exact area.

maybe he can point it out for us on google maps or something.

if you camp on that beach spot, you can go about knee deep towards the river. throw a spoon/spinner down stream towards the lake and slowly twitch it back in. should get some bites.

I either go the exact same way and setup camp by the two trees when you first come onto the beach ( I setup there so I dont disturb sleeping campers when doing night runs) or I come down from the log sort.
