Harvey Bench

¼ hr + ½ hr hike

This is nice close campsite just south of Baer Canyon. I've given it the name Harvey Bench until I find a better one. It looks better in the summer.

The area around the fire ring isn't real flat, but someone has dug out a couple nice places surrounded by rocks up above the fire ring.

There only enough room for one small-medium troop. But I doubt if it gets used much. I guess a few people could sleep on the trail heading north down in the ravine or further up on the jeep trail heading east.

To get there, park at the same location as indicated on the Baer Canyon page and head up to the Bonneville Shoreline trail just above the fence and go south a short distance along the gravel road until you see an old jeep road heading southeast up the hill. It's hard to see. Follow it all of the way up. The last part is pretty steep. If you see a couple steel pipes in the road, take heart, your're almost there.
