About
US Forest Service campground. This is a small, 3 site campground with a tight turning radius. Individual sites are not large enough to accommodate camper trailers or RV's. Pack out what you pack in. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
