Along with the food, the weather is great up at Dinkey Creek!
The water has slowed and made several great swimming & fishing pools up and down the creek. The granite and pools have warmed the water considerably!

The Dinkey Creek Area has a rich history of logging & mining. In this post we’ve included a 25 minute movie on the local logging history produced by Ann Emmert Robinson.
If you haven’t seen the restored Pine Logging Camp, you might want to check it out next time you’re up. Or visit McKinley Grove, Courtright Reservoir, Wishon Lake or other adventures above us.
There is lots to see and do in and around Dinkey Creek.
