The weekend of 7 Jun 08 I took what is now turning into my annual spring trip to Cat Canyon
(Google Map). Tracy went to spend the weekend with her family in Colorado, so I headed out
to Cat Canyon by myself. This makes the third year in a row that I have gone to Cat Canyon
as the first backpack of the summer season...it's usually warm here pretty early, so that's why I
always end up here. I really tried to make it to Little Horse Heaven this time, but after going 6
miles up the trail, I looked at the GPS and realized the trail didn't go to Little Horse Heaven.
Good times. I backtracked to see if I missed a trail, but I didn't find another one. And then, as
luck would have it, I ended up camping in the exact same meadow as we have camped the
past two years. Good times. When I got back to the truck, I checked the trail book, and the
description doesn't really make it clear that you have to go cross country to get to Little Horse
Heaven...but I guess you do. Maybe the fourth time will be the charm to make it there... It's
still a nice trail, though, because we've never seen anyone else out there, and it's easy to get
to.
