    Where do I begin? My first year here was SO awe inspiring, I cried. I cried explaining how deeply moved I was. I am thankful to be part of an amazing church, and group of Women who hold their Annual Retreat here each year. It is PEACEFUL, it is SERENE, it is AMAZING. I look forward to returning each year, and challenge myself to WHAT I will do next. I take advantage of riding, and last year I did the ROPES. THIS year, I will go even higher, having GROWN in my FAITH and my TRUST in the Lord, and my tribe! The hayride under the stars is the PINNACLE of my personal experience. Meals were great (love the Tollhouse Pie in last night! The rooms are quaint and fit MY needs. I am so thankful that Wolf Mountain has become part of my life. SO thankful. See you in April!

For her birthday we reserved a spot in the three-Saturdays camp at Healing Pastures @ C Horse Ranch. This exposed her to horses and riding safety with the very watchful and competent care of the instructors. The team at the C Horse Ranch equipped her and coached her through the process of bonding with the horse. Every step included smart safety skills and critical thinking to watch signals from the horse and to understand how to work with the horse while being in command. She was and still is ecstatic about the experience and wants more. This may be the activity that gets her away from the computer and involved in an energetic life for her well-being. Her animated description of all she felt and learned is a clear sign she is changed, stretched and enriched by all she was taught by Healing Pastures @ C Horse Ranch. Now, seven months after her first experiences, her parents and I are planning a repeat and deeper experience under the trusted team of C Horse Ranch and their expert leadership.

    Wow. Camp Augusta was way more than I expected. Almost to a fault. Let me explain: we came here…read morefor a family weekend camp and really didn't look to hard at what it was. I've been to camp. I've been to Tahoe national forest. I know what it was going to be and hoo boy was I wrong... in thre best possible way. So apparently most of the people there are seasonal regulars and it showed. I'll explain at the bottom. First if all the drive from the south bay. It was not the three hours my wife said, on a Friday afternoon it was almost six. Now that that is out of the way, the rest is all good. First came activity sign up, hope you don't suffer from anxiety or fear of missing out because there are SOOOOOOO many activities. Kid stuff, toddler stuff, adult stuff, stuff I didn't think camps could do. And you should read the emails with the descriptions or man up and ask, because some things are self explanatory (pottery, acrylics, archery, zip line) and some sound fun but in reality shouldn't be done by an overweight 50 year old who has no training, but you can still sign up. And then SOMEHOW they get you to do it and you have a great time! Next are accommodations. Sparse, but cool. Open air cabins in villages, secluded bungalows, pole tents, platform tents, and more (bring bug spray, they're all kinda just open). Different villages, running water means not only flushing toilets (really that should be the title and get 5 stars for that alone) but also HOT showers. While camping. Hot showers and camping, whoddathunkit? Next meals. Meals at camp. Cool. Nope: incredible. Apparently it is a rotating menu but for a weekend or week it means without being a host you have a new option at every meal. Vegans, gluten free, dairy free, whatever, they got you covered. You eat everything, they got you too. Ls favourite was pancakes with berries and whipped cream. And they don't go light. I really dig the teriyaki chicken. The activities were all great, but again there were just too many. You really feel like it is overboard until you get to know everyone else there. It is a place that kids and parents look forward to year after year. The wide selection means that this will be your go to for camping for years to come and for good reason. There were kids that have been going since they were toddlers and now in the mid teens that can still go and have a good time. I had lunch (but no clinics unfortunately) with a young lady who was on year 9. That seemed unlikely bit that wasd including the time she was a camper. How cool is that? L was suffering from preteen cool and didn't want to go to camp, but after the first datu he was pestering me to get him in a couple sessions this summer. They are all full but there is a waitlist, so we're all in on getting him up there somehow. Tl;dr: awesome camp, read my review, it isn't that long

The teachers here are amazing! My middle schooler even had a teacher from his old public school, which was super helpful since he planed to go back to public high school later. This kept him on track (and even ahead) with what he needed to know. Something that I love is that the kids are outside ALL THE TIME! They have class outside, eat lunch outside, and do pretty much everything outside unless the weather is really bad. In summer, they sit under shady trees with nice breezes. In winter, they bundle up with jackets and blankets near space heaters. It reminds me of how European kids spend way more time outdoors instead of being stuck inside all day. My kids have learned tons and made great friends here. If you've read the book "Wild and Free," this school follows that idea perfectly. Kids learn, play, and grow at their own speed. Even if your kids go to regular school, Wild Roots has awesome summer camps that cost less than a babysitter! The kids learn cool stuff while having fun outside. I tell everyone looking for homeschool help around Folsom to check out Wild Roots. It's been such a great place for my family!

    The best part about the Forge is the community of member artists who ply their crafts in this…read morespace. Virtually everyone I met during the 2+ years I was a member was encouraging and supportive of creative work and process. The Forge also has basic equipment for a very wide range of creative expression. The equipment capacities are designed for entry-level folks. If you want to learn welding, or glass blowing or industrial sewing, this is a great place. Sadly, if you want to grow your skills, this may not be the right place. One of the owners manages what you can and cannot do in the making space. He treats this as his private home with cool toys to which you as a member have been granted admission by your monthly payment. If he doesn't like or want you to play with his toys, you are SOL. Longtime "studio guides" implement the owner's wishes, regardless of what is in the best interest of members. That owner refused to give me access to a fairly simple piece of equipment for over a year. The rationale provided over the course of a year and more never held water. During that time I paid over $1000 in membership fees without ever being granted approval to use the specific equipment, despite the fact that other people had regular access to it. I was not treated as a client, I was treated as a supplicant..and I found that untenable. This is not a "professionally managed space" and you would be happier elsewhere as the owner described it to me in an email when I was "invited to leave." You will be happy if the current provisions meet your needs. If you need any upgrades, fixes, adaptations...forget it. This place is managed on such a tiny margin that there is zero room for improvement.

There are endless opportunities to learn the particulars of how to make absolutely anything! Area guides have world-class skills they enthusiastically share. Members seem to be of the same helpful mindset. The two founders are 100% present for brainstorming, feedback as well as being able to accept kudos and hugs. Every time I'm there it's a different experience. Sometimes I'm the only one sawing metal for a piece of jewelry I've dreamed up. Other times I'm in a class with several others who might be honing a skill or learning something entirely new. A weekly text lists what is happening each day that week and a newsletter comes out with exciting upcoming events to attend, volunteer with, or help create. This is a community like none other! Someone can be on their way to the metal fabrication area and stop to see what another person is making in the clay, fiber arts, or any of the 15 other studios. It is fertile ground for cross-pollination of ideas, creativity, support and friendship. We are so lucky to have this resource close to home! I hope you come check it out.

Fires are permitted only in the fire ring. Plenty of wood around to collect and burn. *** Camp Fires are not allowed if you are dispersed camping. *** - Bathrooms: 4 portable bathrooms next to spot 1 in the front and a vault bathroom with 2 stalls by spot 9 &10. When we arrived on Friday, they were cleaned and stocked with toilet paper. By Sunday, they were a stinky mess. The Carr lake campground was great. Spot vary in size. Some of the spots in the front had lake access. The spots in the back have a lake view. You can still access the lake from the spots in the back, but its a pretty steep decent. The spots in the middle do not have lake access but some are pretty private and have lots of shade. Spot 8 has the most privacy and a good amount of distance from the neighbors. Spot 8 is also by a creek. This drowned out the noise other campers made in the evening. Carr Lake was very pretty. However, the main event is Feely lake. Access to Feely lake is between Spot 8 and 9. It's a larger lake with stunning views. A lot of backpackers were heading to Island Lake which is about a mile from the Carr Lake Campground. Due to the Covid related closures around the state, more people than usual are heading to the outdoors. This meant that this usually secluded area was not packed with day hikers and backpackers. The parking lot was at capacity by mid day Friday and people had to park on the side of the road as far as a half a mile away. I recommend that you stake your claim as early as Thursday or very early Friday.

    Lake Carr Campground is a true gem for those adventurous enough to brave the road up there…read more Quick Campsite Stats: Number of Sites: 11 Cost: $15 per day, honor system by envelope (cash or check only) Amenities: - Pit Toilets, but generously stocked with toilet paper. - Metal fire rings with a grill - Picnic table at each site Does not include: - Water (unless you purify the lake water, plenty of that around) - Trash cans (you must pack in what you pack out) Pets Allowed? Yes! Elevation: 6,663 ft Reservations Required?: No. All first come, first served as far as I could tell. Owned and operated by PG&E Getting There (the hard part): It's a good 30-40 minute drive north of Hwy 20 up Bowman Lake Road (Forest Road 18) to where it splits off to Forest Road 17. From there you will see a giant log with "CARR" spray painted in white with an arrow to the right (pretty awesome, I know). Now you're in for three miles of rocky dirt road... and I mean rough. A road full of rocks ranging from the size of grapefruits to dodge balls... so take is slow and steady. I will warn all sedans or low-clearance vehicles to be extremely careful. I saw many cars bottoming out (a mini cooper and prius among them). Towards the top of the road, you'll need to navigate around some big boulder-like rocks embedded in the road. Here is where most low-clearance vehicles gave up, pulled to the side and decided to walk the rest of the way. I have a two-wheel drive Honda CRV. I decided to give it a whirl and made it up to the parking lot by some miracle. Entry to the Campground: Surprisingly the parking lot was already packed at 4:30pm on a Friday! Who are all these people brave enough to make it up that road? I was impressed. I wasn't quite sure what to expect campsite wise considering it was 4th of July weekend and I was hoping to snag one of the first come, first served sites. I wasn't too optimistic, but I threw on my backpack and decided to take a look around. You want to head to the top of the trail (i.e. the road barricade). There you will see a wood bulletin board of sorts with the campsite rules and a place to leave your nightly fee ($15). You put your cash/check in an envelope and tear off the receipt at the bottom. Put the envelope in the slot on the green post and take the receipt to your campsite of choice. Clip it under your campsite number and voila! Note: The PG&E people are checking to make sure you've done this word to wise, but I have no idea if and how they would "cite" you if you didn't pay. It's kind of the honor system. Surveying the Campsites Right after you walk past the bulletin board there are a number of campsites up off to the right. Some of them were already taken by the time I got there, so I walked on down the road, but I heard from some other seasoned campers that one of the first campsites was one of the best out of the eleven. I continued down the road and saw some absolutely stunning ones! I was thrilled to see a few were empty and available. On 4th of July weekend!! I couldn't believe my luck! After I checked out all the real estate I decided on my beauty, campsite number 8... I think? Can't remember exactly. Also recommended is the very last campsite past the bathrooms (farthest from the parking lot). Totally spectacular lake view. I was jealous. Most of the campsites do not have lake access. You're behind some seriously thick brush with no paths to the lake, but I believe the campsites at the very beginning and the very end do have lake access. Something to keep in mind. Not a deal breaker at all though considering Feeley Lake is just a hop skip and jump up the road and even MORE beautiful! :) The bathrooms are clean, although to get there you have to cross part of a river... a stream really, but might be hard to do in the middle of the night unless you have one of the campsites nearest to the bathrooms. Think hopping from stone to stone or just wading through up to your ankles. The campsites grew fairly crowded as the day went on but I observed there were still two or three out of the eleven campsites that were unoccupied throughout the weekend (I was there Fri-Sun). The crowd level was just enough to feel safe and not too much so that you felt it was cramping your solitude time. If you do end up campsite-less for some unfortunate reason, disperse camping is allowed and I saw a ton of people do it along the Round Lake Trail and Crooked Lakes Trail. This is something I will do next time for sure, as the scenery gets even more spectacular the father down the trail you go, espectially up towards Penner Lake. I will definitely be back here as it is one of my new favorite spots in the Tahoe National Forest. I hope this is helpful! :)
