Further up Aiken Mine Road I reach the old road to the Cow Cove rock-art area, now a hiking trail closed to mechanized travel

There's a pull-out here where I could set up camp for the night, but it's right by the road and isn't all that appealing. I continue up Aiken Mine Road to see if I can find a better campsite.

I haven't seen anybody else on Aiken Mine Road yet today, but the area does receive regular visitation and this is the weekend, when more visitation is likely.
