13 miles to the campground is non pavement. It’s all gravel. I have RV Van I could not run more than 5 mph the unevenly gravel made it was to difficult to drive. If you have off road van it will be great. I turn around didn’t make it. I did not want my van to run to the extreme drive.
Basic campsites with a table and fire rings. Two pit toilet bathrooms that were very clean. Green and pretty in April with a view of the plains below. The wildflowers were in bloom so the sites were all taken on a Wednesday night. People were camping in spots that weren’t sites and everyone was getting along. There was potable water and the sites are free. Take the 5 mile, dirt, dead end road to get there. There are creatures out at night so lock up your food and trash.
No res, no fee campground with shade structures, tables, and fire rings... Lots of flat space tho pretty exposed.
What a great place to visit, especially during flower bloom season.
Fairly secluded, free and quiet on a weekday. The road has a few ruts and mud puddles, but nothing that would prevent any car to negotiate. Nice view from the campground.
