Alpine Lake - Bear Valley camping 4.- 6. 9. 2020

 

Labor day weekend is always good weekend for camping or backpacking. This year we had two group sites reservation that were cancelled because of Covid, so in the end we reserved family site next to our friends. The campground was very primitive, but nice. On Saturday we went for hike to Inspiration point. As we were hiking we started to see and smell smoke coming in. After hike we spent some time by the Alpine lake and we watched how the sun hid behind smoke. In the evening the ashes were falling from the sky and we started to wonder if we should pack and drive home. In the end we stayed over the night. In the morning the sky looked better, but we still saw smoke. Since we couldn't check the air quality we decided to drive home one day early.

Prodlouzeny vikend na zacatku zari je vzdy dobry vikend na kempovani v kempu nebo v horach. Tento rok jsem meli zarezervovane dva skupinove kempy, ktere byly ale zruseny kvuli Covidu. Nakonec jsme tedy zarezervovali rodinny kemp hned vedle kamaradu. Kemp byl docela primitivni, ale pekny. V sobotu jsme se vydali na kopec Inspiration point. Jak jsme sli, tak jsme zacali sledovat a citit kour, ktery k nam prichazel. Po ture jsme stravili odpoledne u jezera Alpine a videli jsme jak se slunicko schovalo za kour. Na vecer na nas zacal padat popel a my jsme zacali premyslet, jestli bychom radeji nemeli jet domu. Nakonec jsme zustali pres noc. Rano vypadala obloha lepe, ale stale jsme videli kour. Jelikoz jsme nemohli poradne zjistit jaka je kvalita vzduchu, tak jsme se rozhodli jet o jeden den drive domu.
