THE CAMP
Hummingbird Music Camp was founded in 1959 by K.L. and Wanda Higgins. Together they built a lasting tradition of a place for a quiet getaway without interference.
Hummingbird is owned and managed by the Higgins family
ACTIVITIES
To the south of the Beehive, next to the river there is a fire pit around which to sing songs, tell tall tales or devour s’mores.
Fishing can be found in many areas along the river, with good spots for fly fishing as well as deep holes where you might catch one of the big ones that lie on the bottom. The river is stocked monthly for good fishing to keep or catch and release.
There are a variety of hiking trails around the camp. A walk along the tree lined road that follows the river (with gradual ups and downs) takes about twenty minutes to reach Camp Shaver Meadow. Day or night hikes to the waterfall usually take one and a half hours round trip. A more difficult hike is the Fossil Hike that leads up a rocky canyon with a small creek that’s large enough to slip into and get your feet wet. At the end of the canyon you can search for the many fossils that are tucked away in the rocks for safe keeping. Try to imagine how and when they got there. This hike takes approximately one and a half hours. Since the trail is steep and narrow in spots. It requires good hiking boots and some hiking skills.
