Ponderosa Campground

A few weeks ago we discovered the Nebo Loop and a number of campgrounds we wanted to check out. Yesterday we packed up Harvey and took off for Ponderosa, one of the campgrounds at the end of the loop, near Nephi.

Ponderosa campground is a nice little grove of Ponderosa pines planted in 1914 and now part of the Uinta National Forest. There were no hookups so we actually had to rough it. But listening to the babbling brook outside the windows, smelling the fresh pines, and watching deer wander through the campground made up for it.

Harvey was dwarfed by the almost-100-year-old pines
