Saddened by burn scars on the hillsides and campfire restrictions. Mosquitoes were thick. Enjoyed being the only campers as we take our campkitty with us on our outings.

Not so great experience. This is very remote and about an hour from Hwy 101. The road is gravel after the hatchery. The road was pretty dangerous and with falling rocks and was not maintained. We had to get out and move a few smaller boulders so we could drive past. There were some campers that looked like they've been there for months. Maybe homeless or just camping for an extended period. I'm not sure. There is no drinking water and only vault toilets. There were mosquitoes everywhere and nothing seemed to help. When we went, all of the sites were taken except for one that did not have easy river access. You have to hike down a rocky path so it is not great for kids or older adults. The river is pretty and the sites are free but they fill up quickly. You'd be better off going to someplace that can be reserved.

Stock up in town on your way in. The site is remote, but very safe. Locals travel much further into the forest than that. The best times are what many would call the "Off Season" The beautiful old growth valleys really come to life when a few light rains are in the forecast. BE ADVISED there are several active gold claims in the area. Stay out signs mean just that. They mean everyone, even you. And yes, yes the would mind very much even if it was to take a pic of a flower. Stay out of the gold claims and off the cliffs. Beyond that play nicely and take your damn garbage out with you.
