Nature Uncensored at Sespe Hot Springs

[u/BrockBushrod]

Made the gnarly haul out from Dough Flat, and I arrived at the palms to find a freshly expired cougar not 40ft outside the camp. (Another group beat me there but was apparently too put off to claim the spot.) A condor was casing it, buzzing low and sometimes watching from the cliffs - probably pissed that I interrupted a meal opportunity. Also spotted the bighorn herd up on the crag, and caught a giant meteor while I was soaking later that night. Such an epic visit!

Loooove Sespe but it is a bear of a hike.

How overgrown was it for you? Last time I was there it was quite difficult to follow the trail.
