The Happy's have around 120 boulder problems. The weather is about the same as the Sad's, but there is more shade here so it will be cooler in the summer months Pay camping at Pleasant Valley, free at Horton Creek (pit toilet and wash water) or The Pit (left before Pleasant Valley CG, porta-potty, free/donation) |
