Thread: Bloodroot Gap

  1. #1

    Default Bloodroot Gap

    Can anyone tell me if there is water / tenting in Bloodroot Gap? This is between David Logan Shelter and Sunrise Shelter. Sunrise shelter is too close to the road so I need to find another option.

    I hiked in this area Memorial Day weekend and I don't recall there being any water in the area, but I probably wasn't looking for it either because I stayed at David Logan. Bloodroot Gap has a snowmobile trail running through so you could definitely find a spot to pitch a tent. (If it's not actually at the gap, it's just north of it.) There were a few other areas along the way with obvious signs people had camped in the area... though I'm not sure they were legal sites or not.

    Yes. See the little red triangle in the upper right of each post? Click that to report it.

    This Christmas season has been especially bad for spammers. Folks would be amazed at how many are deleted and banned.

    You could find a dry and shady spot on the snow machine trail at Bloodroot Gap. In June 2017 the spring about 0.2 miles south was flowing nicely. Look for a 100-foot wide treeless swathe crossing the LT.
