Prairie Creek







After a less than restful night at the Ukiah Wal-Mart, we hit the road north at about 8:30. With the winding road (at points) and the reduced speed, the GPS estimate of a noon arrival at Prairie Creek was a little off. We stopped for lunch at a county beach/campground (more of a parking lot really) just north of Arcata. We arrived at Prairie Creek about 2:00.






Our first attempt at backing into a space, leveling, etc. went ok, considering I was squeezing a 26 foot trailer into a 24 foot space. We got parked without a fistfight, and went to the visitor center to see what was available. We ended up going on about a 3 mile hike before returning to the campsite for a hot shower and dinner. This is a nice spot, and we're looking forward to seeing more of it tomorrow.
