Summary
No reservations or permits are needed, and there are no fees. There are no toilets (practice Leave No Trace), no potable water, no fire rings or grills, and no picnic tables. RVs are not recommended due to narrow, rough roads and lack of amenities. Expect a peaceful, remote experience in a scenic forested valley with granite formations and creek access. Popular nearby trails include the Goose Creek Trail and Lost Creek Loop. Best visited from late spring to early fall for mild weather and accessible trails.

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.
