Something not right?
Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Wide open wooded clearing, fairly level, lots of sun. There are many other spots nearby with fire pits as well. This is National Forest land and there were no signs posted aside from some Woodsy the Owl signs reminding all to give a hoot and don’t pollute!
There are cows and bulls that roam freely here - we saw the cow pies here and there and saw one bull who walked past our camp, made a sound to let us know of his presence and proceeded to lay down nearby at a safe distance.
There is a water trough nearby,
So be mindful not to camp too close. There are restrictions about how close you can camp or park near these, but I can’t reference offline at the moment exactly how far.
The dirt tracks can be rugged and rutted in this area, depending on the weather it may not be passable with 2WD. At this particular time 4WD wasn’t needed.
Wild camping so no amenities. There was a bit of trash around so please pack it out & leave it better than you found it.
It was very quiet out here. we were the only ones out here midweek, with a few other vehicles that passed by. There are Bears, Elk, Deer, Cattle & Mountain Lions in these woods so practice awareness and safety accordingly.
It snowed a little on our last day. Enjoy!
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
