May 1, 2024
The D62 35L Campsite is located in the Lower Deschutes watershed of Oregon and offers primitive camping with no reservations required and no fees. The campsite is surrounded by beautiful views of the Deschutes River and the nearby towering rock formations.
Visitors to the area can enjoy hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing. The nearby White River Falls State Park is a popular attraction, with its picturesque waterfall and historic power plant.
The campsite itself offers basic amenities such as picnic tables and fire rings, but there are no toilets or potable water sources available. Visitors are advised to bring their own water and to practice Leave No Trace principles during their stay.
Interesting facts about the area include the presence of the Bighorn Sheep herd, which can often be seen along the riverbanks, and the historic significance of the Deschutes River as a major transportation route for Native American tribes and early settlers.
The best time of year to visit the D62 35L Campsite is during the summer months, from June to August, when temperatures average around 80°F during the day and 50°F at night. However, visitors should be prepared for hot temperatures during the day and cool temperatures at night, as well as the possibility of thunderstorms in the afternoon.
