Oregon Day 6 - Bike Kalama Horse Camp

Setting up our tent next to a corral.

09/13/11 Tuesday

We drove up to Mount St. Helens and found a cheap, primitive campsite on the south side of the mountain at the Kalama Horse Camp.

There was no one else around, so we camped next to a corral.

On the Cinnamon Trail.

We wanted to do short ride in the afternoon before a big ride tomorrow, so we went exploring on the Kalama Falls Trail.

After riding a couple of miles and seeing nothing, we backtracked and rode up the Cinnamon Trail a mile or so.

Lots of big blowdown in the Pacific Northwest.

The Cinnamon Trail was a little chewed up from horse traffic, but a scenic ride in a ravine above a stream.

Just goofing around.

It was a nice little workout with some short, steep sections, but we turned around to get some dinner before dark.
