This site was beautiful, on top of a ridge in the middle, literally, of huge golden hay fields. The views were amazing in every direction, and would have been even better if the smoke from the wildfires had not settled into the areal. Even so it was nice, very private and relaxing. I will definitely be going back in the near future. Not expecting much I arrived to find a gas grill, a clean outhouse (big plus), and even a couple tables and chairs on raised platforms. Can't wait to come back and see all the surrounding mountains in clear visibility!

I had a great couple of days at Ellison Ranch. Kent communicated with me very accurately and promptly to my questions. Eric met me the day I arrived and lead the way down to the campsite right on the river. A perfect place for solitude and beauty! I would have explored more but I have an aging dog that can't take the physical stress of long hikes anymore, however we still roamed around a bit. Perfect place for fly fishing, in fact I met a local guide who was leading clients to that particular stretch of the river my second day. The only negative was purely weather related....the smoke in the entire area was very bad and made visibility poor when looking into the distance. So, I'm already planning a trip back to get more incredible pictures.
