Modoc County California, USAMore information:
The middle fork of Fitzhugh Creek runs through a 2100 acre wildlife preserve in Modoc County California. The preserve provides quality habitat for deer and pronghorn “antelope, ” as well as a host of birds and, I have to believe, black bears as it just looks like bear country to me. On this particular day I was in the middle of a 4 day “me time” camping trip, just generally trying to disconnect for a bit. Modoc County is probably the most remote county in the nation’s most populated state so it was just what the doctor ordered. I didn’t see much wildlife on this day but I also didn’t see any humans for about 6 hours as I explored around the back country. I’d never heard of this creek until I came to it that late spring day, and I probably spent a half hour just soaking it in under mid-day light that was nicely diffused by some high overcast.
