dry meadow creek

About 15 years ago, I went with my kids and grandkids there, and had a wonderful time there. The fishing was great, and, although there were no "facilities" there, we made out ok.

Our family often travels here, but even with 4 wheel drive, it is often a VERY long hike to get to the best spots. No cell coverage, and the rangers only pass through once (or less) a day, so if somebody gets hurts, somebody else has to haul them out.Speaking of hauling, that includes your trash and, if you're camping, make sure you bring a porta-potty and bury the waste well away from the streams and camping areas. Check with Keepers of the Kern (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Keepers-of-the-KERN/665858960111279) for ways to visit respectfully and safely.Campfire permit required if open flame camping - and this is not always permitted.
