    Tips

    July 20, 2025

    One of the major crossing points of Lusk Creek; keep an eye out for a good primitive camping spot east of here, within an easy walk of the crossing but not so close to the water that you could be swept away if it rises quickly. (Depending on conditions, the creek can rise six feet or more in a few hours — not the sort of thing you want happening in your vicinity while you're fast asleep.)

    In typical conditions, if you scout around near the crossing you might be able to find a built-up section of rocks you can cross in shallow water.
