Leavenworth Adventure
By Brandon Hoekstra

On Wed June 8th I decided to go out to Leavenworth area and camp. I headed out on Icicle Creek road.

I explored the area a little before finding a camp spot. Here's where the washout was.

Looks as you had a great time. Thanks for sharing. I hope we get to do a mid-week event in that area this summer.
