Hank and l hiked down to Ranger Creek air field. It’s just over 3 miles from here. Nice day for a walk in the trees, only about 25 feet is out in the sun.
On the way back Hank decided he’d gone far enough. He started to slow down and as soon as I stopped he laid down in the trail. We set there for 15 minutes and he was ready to go again. He didn’t stop again until we got back to camp, a tired puppy.

Here are some maps and pictures from our hike.
Green Trails map I made to carry in my pocket.
We are camped at Silver Springs Campground. This week we hiked to Ranger Creek air field trail 1199 and last week we took 1199 and 1196 to Noble Knob. Last week we got within 1/2 to 3/4’s of a mile from the top, elevation 5340 which is off this map.
The following two maps I made with Google Earth.
Ranger Creek and the sign.

The bridge just before the trial heads up hill towards Noble Knob. It’s at Deep Creek
This is the trail head on the first turn of the Coral Pass Road.
