This trip was to be an over night camping trip to Carrizo Plain to check out a new tent. But high winds and the lack of an Adventure pass ended the trip with out an over night stay.
There were high winds in the National Monument. I check out both camping spots but it was too windy so I decided to check out some campgrounds in the Los Padres National Forest. The Valle Vista campground was perfect. It has a great view and it was empty. I just had to drive 15 miles into Pine Mountain Club to get an Adventure Pass. It was getting late but it was only 15 miles. Unfortunately the store in Pine Mountain Club was out of the passes.
So it was off to Lake of the Woods, another 20 miles down the road. By the time I had my Adventure Pass it was almost dark. It would be very dark by the time I back tracked the 35 miles. Lake of the Woods is only 2 hours to Camarillo. The dogs and I arrived home at 9 pm. Maybe next week.
Lunch in Ventucopa at The Place.
This is the south entrance to the National Monument.
