We hiked the Busiek Red and Yellow trials today – 5 miles and 596 ft. of elevation. We ventured off-trail for a while so I could show Ginger some of the things I’d discovered when I backpacked through here in June.
The 1930s Dodge Panel Truck has been put the right way up by someone (it was on its side). I’m not sure if I like the idea of it being moved or not. Regardless it was an opportunity for a few pictures.
We also got to see a fair bit of trash visitors to Busiek have left behind. We’re not sure if this is caused by ignorance or laziness. Is education the answer or just a waste of time?

The fire rings at Busiek are quite primitive and don’t include a grill.
Busiek – trail to Campsite #8. The Red Trail passes to the left here, while the trail to campsite 8 goes right. Campsite 8 is officially a Group Campsite.

It seems someone has tipped the truck upright since I was here in June.
