Jedediah Smith SP/NP CG, Crescent City, CA - Oct. 29

Finally over the border to CA and into the Redwoods, we have a site in the Jedediah Smith SP/NP in Crescent City. After an afternoon of exploring, we were coming back into the CG when the bounce of the van coincidentally hit a high spot caused by a tree root and disrupted the seal or broke the phalange on the pipe connected to the holding tank (black of course). It’s not a debilitating problem but one we have to fix so we may opt to go back north to OR where there is a cluster of RV folks rather than push through CA and miss places we want to see.

We will be pursuing a lifting kit to get another couple inches higher.  Six inches off the ground isn't making it under normal situations out here. Because of the rain in this area, every place we pull into has crowns that cause problems.
