I didn’t spend a single night sleeping in a tent last year, due to 2 foot surgeries. I decided to start easy this year, and after hearing all the sketchy log bridges were replaced at Greenwater Lakes recently, I decided to make that my first overnight trip of the year. The new bridges are amazing!

I was fortunate to find the campsite I wanted, about 1/4 mile past the 2nd Greenwater Lake, along Lost Creek. Bonus: No mosquitoes! After setting up camp, I spent the afternoon sitting and reading for hours, listening to water and watching birds, and generally soaking up the peace and quiet of Nature.

I was only out for 24 hours, but it was perfect, exactly what I needed to disconnect from the hectic pace of life for a day.
