Re: Water still running at Mt Lowe camp?

Anyone been to Lowe recently and if so was there any water in the tank or from the spring box pipe? It's getting so dry camping is becoming the norm.

I was at Commanche Camp 10/3/14. No water. Water was flowing pretty good at 3rd stream.

There was plenty of water there Jan 11-12. Water in the metal tank that is. There hasn't been water running out of the spring box pipe or the seep below the camp for a long time.

Re: Bear Canyon Trail Camp - water & general conditions?

I guess I'll have to save up some gas money and drive over to that area. It looks like early spring conditions.

Thanks Jim
