San Josef main logging road.

About halfway to Holberg lies a beautiful lake, Nahwitti Lake, fed by the Nahwitti River.  We stopped there , drove into the forest, there is a campsite there too, probably for people on the way to or coming back from the West Coast Trail.  Magistic trees still stand here, i even found a very large Yew tree, never seen such a big one.  The canopy creates a  diffused light, which is perfect for the many, many mushrooms and fungi growing in the moss.   Is it so amazing , how incredible quiet it is in a forest, most people in this world never experience this, it makes you humble and still.   We rooted around, did some exploring, found  some huge stumps from cedars, recently cut, they were windfall, and would be a danger for anyone camping there.   We stayed there for a long time, checking out all the mushrooms, sitting by the lake.  Late afternoon we came to the crossroad, to the left is towards Holberg, another 30 km!!!  We decided to head back, as our car was not too happy driving on this road,( it became quite rough) ,plus it started raining , and we (car), were totally covered in mud!!! It was a good day,  time to head home,for a well deserved glass of wine!!
