Summary

Campers must pack in/out and follow Leave No Trace principles. There are no toilets, water, fire rings, picnic tables, RV access, or hookups, making it ideal for self-sufficient, experienced campers. Nestled in dense forest near the Suomi Hills and Trout Lake, the area offers solitude, wildlife, and access to scenic hiking and biking trails. The vibe is peaceful and remote, perfect for backcountry immersion. Visit late spring through early fall for mild weather and trail accessibility. Permits not required unless for large groups.

Camping Essential Practices

Pack It In, Pack It Out
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.
