Something not right?

Description

Road is now open. iOverlander had it marked as closed for winter.

----------

Lots of free sites down this road. Fire pits at each site. There are trees that have been cut down by the forestry service, so lots of free wood. It is about 9 minutes from town. Cell service is great on Verizon and metro.

Easy access, but every spot had people, even on a Tuesday evening. Just had to cozy up and share. Beautiful area!

Road closed. Most of the roads to the sites on IO are closed right now! Sign says it's closed until 3/1 but today is 3/20 so maybe it will open again in April?

Secluded dispersed campsite. Lots of spaces. A bunch of trash. Left it better than we found it.

Nice spot. Very quiet and secluded. The trees have grown up to obscure the view of Tucson a bit.

Beautiful mountains and pine trees. Lots of fire pits. Great cell reception.

Lots of camp sites up this road. The higher you go the windier it is so we preferred to stay lower. Fire rings at each site! Great views at the top of the mountain. Highly recommend staying here.

All spots up on Mount Lemmon are inaccessible (closed with barriers) from December 15 until March 1.

You can park a little ways up from the actual camp ground during the winter seasons. Be very cautious of ice and snow on the road up to and around the area.
