50 Miler from Alpental to Cooper Lake
Day One - Snow Lake at Alpental to Goldmyer Hotsprings
Goldmeyer
Two creek crossings :
- Thundering Creek
- Burnt Something Creek.
- there is a log jam across the creek, that you can cross on or cross nearby. East of the creek there is old flood plane of the creek, full of rock and gravel so no clear path. You'll see a downed log that has a trail cut through it, go this direction and you'll come to trees where there will be an obvious trail. You'll come till there is a fork, the straight fork notes that your entering private land, these are goldmyer hot spring signs. We'll be walking through the campsite at this point. Go up the hill and you'll come to caretakers cabin, where they will check us in. We can't arrive before 6pm.
