Summary
There are no toilets, water, picnic tables, fire rings, or hookups—campers must be fully self-sufficient. Accessible via rough forest roads, it's best suited for high-clearance vehicles and tents, though small RVs may manage. Nestled in a quiet, forested setting at over 4,000 feet, it provides a peaceful, off-grid experience. Nearby attractions include trails in the Tahoe National Forest and views of the Middle Fork American River. Best visited late spring through fall when roads are dry and accessible. No permits required unless fire restrictions are in place.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
