Trip to Keystone Bay, well the way back at least

Didn't think to use the camera going out. Much more fun after the thunderstorm though. We camped though it and headed home the next morning. A whole 8 miles away :-)r

At the bay

Primitive cooking gear

Natural plate made from Thimbleberry leaves

Setting up camp, kids in the water

Ready for the 50% chance of T-storms

Picture does not show how steep this was, this was on the way out the next morning after the storm

This is us turning at full lock from around the last turn. You can see where larger rigs have scraped off some of the trees bark.

More tightness

Mossy trees. Even before the rain this area is well covered and had multiple water holes

The work around the old berms from an issue from a few yeares back

I hear this is a rare flower

Still going

This used to just be a huge water crossing, not sure when the crushed rock was put in

One of the larger puddles, not much deeper than halfway up the tires

Low bridge

The easy part just after you come off the Mandan Loop

That is everything. Cannot wait to go more places!!!!

Very jealous, looks like a beautiful area. Good on you for getting the kids out and teaching them to appreciate the outdoors.
