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.
Nice safe spot, a little distant road noise, but very little traffic at night. We camped here one night while passing through. Easy well maintained (heavily used?) fire road. Pavement then gravel for about a mile. Turn north at first established fork in road. Fairly large semi level turn around, room for several vehicles. We used 4h with a suv and small off road trailer. Very doable with 2wd, couple whoops but not rutted out. Below snow level in November. (2020 was pretty light snowfall).
Couple little piles of trash hidden in bushes, ammo casings, and left behind targets. Fire ring, but cal fire sign at road turnoff posted seasonally no fires. Be careful with fires up there.
We saw no one, but it was November and during pandemic, large network of fire roads, I’d go back, maybe drop trailer and this site, and scout deeper without it hooked up.
ATT had no service and Verizon had spotty/unreliable 1-2 bars of service.
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.
Latest Check-Ins
awesome spot. only people we saw were out for the day cutting down Xmas trees. no service and the dirt turnoff is rough but made it fine in a 2wd sprinter. second spot just down past the first big fire ring is secluded and level
Report Check-InPlenty of pull offs in the first mile or two. It does go to private land after that. Highly recommended if you need a night's sleep off of 88!
Report Check-Invery nice spot along a forestroad which is not in the maps. if this spot is occupied, you can follow the road down into the valley, there are at least two more possibilities to stay. no 4wd or hc needed, just take it slow. no t-mobile service and not suitable for big rigs. enjoy!
