Fish Creek - Sequoia National Forest & Upper Owens River - May 24-28
Troy Meadow Campground is a remote camping destination located just off Sherman Pass Road in the Sequoia National Forest near Domeland Wilderness Area. The campground is 10 miles west of Kennedy Meadows (in Inyo National Forest, not Sonora Pass) and 33 winding miles northwest of Johnsondale.. We will be chasing Golden Trout in these great little streams such as Salmon Creek, Trout Creek, Jackass Creek, Fish Creek, and Corral Creek. Then Late Sunday or early Monday morning we will be trekking towards Upper Owens River about a 3.5 hour drive and set up basecamp at Brown's Owens River Campground as we gear up to chase Cutthroat Trout marking the opening of some famous creeks.
This Outing has no activities or volunteer stream leaders. It is fishing on your own in solitude. Please research the streams, location and terrain if interested in attending. There is no cellular service, roads may be unpaved and there is no potable water. This is an opportunity to discover new areas and fish in tranquility. Travel may require a vehicle suited for unpaved roads. Depending on the group size and fire restrictions in place, there may be a campfire each night to share fishing stories. This trip is aimed for the adventure seeker. SPFF has not done an Outing at this location and is more geared for scouting and future program development.
Troy Meadow Campground has 73 campsites which can accommodate RVs, trailers, and tents. Campers are asked to pack out their trash.
