My friends always lament not having their rods and/or not having enough time to fish various spots out there. Lots of great looking spots on the Bechler and on Shoshone Creek!

Yeah I thought the dam would give out under me at any second! I was the first across and it held for all of us. I thought the cage things were just to create a bit of space where water would flow and beavers couldn't block the flow, but I'm not actually educated on that. Haha. So I can't say...

I think the only solution for that spot is to swing really wide toward Douglas Knob. Or just wear waterproof boots and gaiters and go for it like I did. Haha. Hope you go over there again! Easily the spot I've spent the most time in in the park, and I'll never get tired of it.

September 29 - October 3, 2023 This is the fourth year in a row we've done this sort of trip at the end of September/beginning of October, hence the thread title. The route was a little different this time since we wanted to see the Pitchstone Plateau and some other areas, and also because, for...

Missed one on my original home turf! Haha. Never made it quite to that area before, but that whole Hoosier NF, Yellowwood SF, Morgan-Monroe SF, etc. area is fantastic. Incredible road cycling back in there, and some good hiking and mountain biking too.

And I can confirm that even on the ground you can't follow it all the way through haha. This was a "good" section where there was an impression on the ground you could still follow. Doesn't really even show in the photo.

It's probably a wash haha. The bushwhack probably lost us most of the time we were trying to save by taking the shorter route. I don't remember it being too bad down to the creek, but maybe it's gotten worse since I was there a bit over 6 years ago, or I just don't remember that stretch of...

Very nice! I have a photo of that view down from the headwaters of the South Buffalo Fork hanging in my office. It's also the banner picture on my profile, but you can't tell because it's cut off. Is the "south turning spur trail" you mentioned the one that crosses Cub Creek about 3/4 of the...

Cool to see some places I've been! I thought that Bear Cub Pass would make such a good camp site when I passed through there a while back. Hard to believe that was over 6 years ago. I've gotta go back next year! Very useful information about Bob's Canyon.

I tried that for the first time recently and was surprised by how good it was. Think I'll make it again this week now that you've reminded me!

Love it! Great work. And honestly hardly remember most of the places in those shots from when I went several years ago. I need to go back.

Cool find! They sure look like small black bear tracks to me.

How big would you say they were? All I get at my house is dog prints and dog crap.

Great bear encounters and photos! I say it about each day of this trip I've seen, but what a day! I'm enjoying being the designated judge of the nightly camp dinner shot hahaha. Goes hard, as always!

I'm looking to get my xc skis out this weekend! 8 inches down here in the valley over the last 2-3 days, and we've barely cracked 20F in that time period. Maybe going below 0 tonight. Seems like this happens every year in late October, then it warms up again for the next few weeks.

Haha. I imagine most of it is buried in the brush, but there's actually an old boiler thing that's in the shallow water at the head of the lower lake. It's right near the backcountry campsite, from what I understand. Here's a photo from another site:

Good for Jeff! Haven't seen much of him around here lately. And look at those flowing locks! Did you guys take a look at the old relics from the oil drilling at the upper head of (lower) Kintla? I've wanted to go see that for a while but didn't have time to go that far when I went to Kintla a...

I'd say that camp picture of the gang still goes hard. The slight smiles are nice but I can tell you guys are still tough as nails. Awesome day! I love coming across spots like that where there are tons of bear tracks in both directions. And I'm kind of like you in that I like to clean off the...

As far I understand, in this instance, it would mean that you all look badass/cool. Haha.

I am here for the continuing entries in this series. Loved this one. Incredible waterfall and looked like a fantastic day to be out in that area. And in the words of today's youth, the shot of you all around the fire "goes hard."
