Had a great relaxing trip , hopefully take off up north in a couple weeks or maybe Henshaw for those Crappie , D
 
Looks like fun. It's been a long long time since I've been through that area. Thanks for the trip report!
 
Good memories. I backpacked Palomar several times when I lived in San Diego in the late seventies/ early eighties. Thanks for taking me back.
 
Bring back old memories. That's my old home town. I was stationed at Palomar in 75 and at the Henshaw station the following year. Spent many nights camping, hiking & fishing in my youth. Grew up just over the hill in Chihuahua Valley.
Thanks for the pictures.
