always a perfect experience. And that's not all you can do here in the Southern Cascade Range. You should positively dedicate some time to Dead Soldier Meadow since you're here at Dead Soldier Trail, and if you have time to spare, Crater Lake National Park is a national park worth
visiting.
If you came to camp Mountain Home Mobile Village is a great location to do that; if you're looking for some flowing water? Try Dead Soldier Creek. Get covered with water paddling on Rogue River - North Fork, and hey, Coffee Creek is a wonderful local stream.
