Summer Dosewallips Scouting Trip

ReporterThomas O'Keefe

My son and I went on a fishing, camping, and scouting mission up the Dosewallips River. We drove to the end of the road at mile marker 8.6 and then hiked in to Elkhorn Campground at mile 11.0. We stopped at the washout at mile 9.8 and scouted the Maze along the way. The Maze was pretty clean, but too low at summer flows, with some wood in play throughout. The campground was beautiful and full on a summer weekend with many families taking advantage of this great opportunity to hike or bike in a short distance for a weekend of river-side camping. The old picnic tables and fire rings have been removed and the outhouse is boarded up but the campsites are still clear and open for dispersed camping.
