Summary
A backcountry permit is required (no reservations or fees beyond the permit). There are pit toilets but no water, fire rings, picnic tables, or RV access. Fires are prohibited. The experience is remote and serene, set in a forested and lakeside setting surrounded by rugged peaks. It’s a peaceful spot for solitude and wildlife viewing, accessible via a 4.5-mile hike from the Logging Lake Trailhead. Best visited in summer or early fall for clearer trails and warmer weather.

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.
