Hanna Flat, Day 1

Upon our arrival to our campsite, we quickly learned that we had packed the wrong tent poles (though they were brought up later by some others in the group), so we took advantage of the last hour or two of daylight to do a bit of exploring near our site. Although devastated by a fire a few years ago, Hanna Flat was still gorgeous- it was just nice to be in nature. Little to no reception, we were able to just sit near the fire, enjoy each other's company and the quiet and stillness. I definitely want to do a trip like many times next year. Here goes, starting with the car trip up:

Hanna Flat, Day 2

I was so happy to find that I did not have my usual Friday night shift so that I could join my friends (some really cool people) to go camping. Although my trip was cut short (one day instead of two, due to work), I really enjoyed the time I got to spend. We were in Hanna Flat, which is a campsite in the Big Bear area. It was freezing at night...but that's what fires and s'mores are for! I'm just bummed that it's the end of the season, I would have loved to go again!
