Don, you are correct. It is on the Fanton trail, not too far from where it meets 4614. There is an old landing there and it takes off up to the Old Baldy Trail. Somewhere in that section is where this campsite is. It isn't too far from that landing, probably less than a mile.
I've done exactly what Donovan said - I always thought that would be a great place to camp, but have never camped there....
Your turn, Don.
Here is a photo of a trail that I hope won't be too easy to figure out. It is a cuurent district trail, and is not in a wilderness area.
I'm pretty sure I know this one, but I've not been on the trail in the early season (as it appears when this was taken due to the flowers). I'll let someone else have a shot, and if no one else tries in a day or two, I'll take a guess.
Well, I'll take a shot at it. The photo looks like it was taken along a ridge. So I'll guess it's the Rhododendron Ridge Trail?

Kirk, I have never hiked the Rho Ridge Trail in the early summer to catch the wildflowers in bloom, but hope to some day. I always seem to be in that area in the late summer or fall.
You will have to look elsewhere in the district to find the trail I posted. The trail was part of a much longer trail back in the day, but this segment has been spared and is still enjoyed by those who hike it's path.
