Surveyor Name:	axel
Camp Description:	Came down from Mission Pine, could not find Coche Camp so stayed at Kellogg. The camp has not seen much use lately, and weeds were growing in the fire ring, but the table is still there and water is flowing in the creek. Signs of very recent bear activity and the trail is impassible just down stream, to Flores Camp because of deadfall and overgrowth.
Water Source:	Flowing
Water Source Details:	Good clear cold water flowing.
Weather Conditions:	Pleasant weather with air temperature in the 70s. Nights cool.

Kellogg Camp Survey - 03-02-2016 - by Los Padres Forest Association

Date:	03-02-2016
Surveyor Name:	Los Padres Forest Association
Camp Description:	Stopped briefly at Kellogg Camp on my way from Big Pine and to Flores.  Kellogg remains the best camping option in the Grapevine network of camps.  The "table" at camp continues to be a punching bag for local bear and will probably lose the battle with gravity sooner rather than later.  The old toilet box has been moved to above the camp just off the trail, which is an upgrade.  Camp looks good.
Water Source:	Flowing
Water Source Details:	Good water flowing right at camp, as always.
Weather Conditions:	Fantastic. Sunny, low 70's with a gentle breeze
