Hello All,
The board has been pretty quite past couple of weeks, thought I would share our adventure from a couple of weeks ago.
Spent the weekend camping at the Borden Creek Bridge. Arrived Friday after work. Still a good amount of water flowing under the bridge, though I could tell the level is dropping month to month. Won't be long until Borden Creek will barely be a thin trickle during the height of the summer.
Friday night was uneventful, except for a group of young guys who were camping near the bridge with their canoes for a day run down to the pull out after the 33 Sipsey Bridge. Very loud and very drunk, I started to lose my cool when they here still partying hard and loud at 2:30 in the am. Very hard to sleep with that much ruckus.
We caught back up with them on Sunday and found out one of the guys slipped off a rock and broke his collar bone. I guess drinking and canoeing don't mix.
Spent Saturday with a group searching for the 4 entrances of the Borden Creek Cave. Met Pully, and he spent the day bushwhacking thru the woods with us. We found 3 of the entrances and found the cave runs almost 1/4 mile from entrance to entrance.
Starting searching for Flannigan Creek Cave, but found walkin thru Borden Creek much cooler.
Pictures are here if interested:

We plan on doing trail 210-224 loop last weekend in May, two or three nights backpacking and camping.
Eric
