Carbon River Camp sits at 3100ft. I had descended 2520ft from Mystic Camp. Flowers and prolific plant growth thrived, while fall colors dominated higher elevations. Lupine and Indian paintbrush flourish, top left. At Ipsut rain fell again. I erected my tent and hastily threw on the rainfly. Later I had to move because someone had reserved this spot. I'd been allowed to move ahead today and didn't have a reservation. This is a drive up campground, different from hikers back country camps.
