Description

Herman Camp is at the junction of the Gorton Creek Trail at the Herman Creek Trail, 1.2 miles from the Herman Creek Trailhead. From here, the Herman Creek Trail continues up Herman Creek, while the Gorton Creek Trail starts a steeper path. The Gorge Trail also heads east from here towards Wyeth Trailhead.

The campsite is nothing much. A flat area for a number of tents. A fire ring. No views. No water, but the map says there's a spring a short distance southeast from the junction.
