If you push on another 3.5 miles past where our route stops (near the old Camp Comfort) you'll make it to the Church Creek Shelter. <br /><br />http://www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/olympic/recarea/?recid=47803 <br /><br />The info on fording the river pertains the the Church Creek Trail. You'll already be on the correct side of the river on the Lower Skokomish River Trail. Have fun! -Jer<br />Jerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00373862571150138613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148308556895660080.post-13176128054517114612013-11-23T16:23:51.752-08:002013-11-23T16:23:51.752-08:00I love the site guys!

You mentioned the one unmarked campsite at SK004. Are there any other campsites there near the river?

It's important to remember that trails are man-made, and there is almost always a story that goes along with their making. Thanks again, and always feel free to share your thoughts on trails we hike in the future!Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187872655265791700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148308556895660080.post-88629125588982077242012-05-19T12:07:31.680-07:002012-05-19T12:07:31.680-07:00Sad to hear that Camp Comfort is gone.

He spoke of using a froe to make shakes for the shelter from a fallen cedar tree.<br /><br />Owen KramerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
