Summer Camping in the Angeles National Forest: Part One

Mount Baden-Powell (9,406ft.)  to the southwest of the campsite. From what I've read, there is an 8 mile hike that climbs 2,800ft up the north face to the summit that is a "must-do" for any serious Southern Californian hiker.
Mid-afternoon sun coming down through the trees, warming the fallen pine needles below.
A surplus of wood, ready for that evening's fire.
Home for the night.
A late-afternoon stormed rolled through, bringing with it rain and lightning. This was the calm before the storm.
