I teamed up with friend and fellow YouTuber Pharraoh(check out his channel here - https://www.youtube.com/user/PHARRAOH) for a great backpacking and fishing trip through upper Deep creek in the San Bernardino mountains. We started from the Splinters cabin trailhead and hiked downstream all the way to the Hot Springs. Sometimes following the stream and sometimes using the PCT. We camped out on a beautiful little beach about halfway down. We fished lots of great holes and caught a bunch of trout, we swam in some of the pools and jumped off the cliffs, and we even got to see a beaver! We had lots of cool adventures on this trip. We got down to, and had a nice soak at the hot springs. Then we climbed out the brutally steep Bradford ridge trail back to our car shuttle at the trailhead. Fun times, good friends, and good fishing!!

Deep Creek was a fun area to explore, hopefully you got to take a dip in the Springs, I remember the water felt so nice.
