The previous week’s temperature peaked into the 100s in Napa. I was hoping that moving up to a higher elevation might be a bit cooler. Well I was right, Cisco Grove near Donner Pass had a high yesterday around 75. Nice.
I have found on my travels that some of the best places are marked very clearly. Lets take a look at what I found!

The Yuba River is formed from meltwater from the snow. The water is actually a really nice temperature compared to the ocean water off the California coast. I didn’t go swimming in it, but I will definitely go back and maybe go tubing or rafting in the fall.
While we were in playing in the river, I found a very ferocious animal hiding in the bushes. See if you can spot him!

Here is Izze and Dusty after playing for a while.

I ended up camping at Cisco Grove Campground, which is a great place to be. It is right next to the Yuba River and has a creek flowing through the campground. There is many ATV trails that start from right next to the campground! I’m going to camp there again on my way back.




I love those dogs! Sounds like you are having a blast. I am very happy for you.
What happened to dustys ear?
The Yuba River is great and freezin’ ass cold. Camped on the river for a few days – baths were great and SHORT! What an experience you are having being able to travel for awhile. ENJOY!
animal in the bush-do you have a weapon? Like a broon stick? Be careful. love
