Pine Log Creek Swimming Hole
This natural swimming hole forms where Pine Log Creek cuts through granite bedrock, creating a series of clear pools perfect for cooling off after running the challenging ford upstream. The water’s cold even in summer, fed by mountain springs, and the granite slabs make for excellent lounging spots. Local families know about this spot, so expect company on weekends, but it stays relatively quiet during weekdays.
Park along the roadside where you see the obvious social trail down to the creek — no formal parking area. Water levels drop significantly in dry spells, making the pools shallow but the rocks more exposed for sunbathing. No facilities, pack out all trash.
