An illegal habitation along the High Route

Trinity Alps Wilderness

I stumbled upon this hideaway during my descent to Canyon Creek. There's several hundred pounds of gear packed into this refuge. The boulder is covered with tarps, brush and limbs so it can't be seen from the air. I looked around, and found the person liked to read alot about Hindu and Buddahist philosophy. However, he's clearly grinding against the Wilderness Act and nature. The forest will learn about it, and deal with it accordingly. No one was home when I checked it out..
