The D62 58L Campsite is a primitive, non-reservable, no-fee area located in the Lower Deschutes watershed of Oregon. The campsite offers stunning views of the surrounding Deschutes River, which is popular for rafting, fishing, and other water activities. The area is also known for its scenic hiking trails, including the Deschutes River Trail and the Scout Camp Trail.
The campground amenities are basic, with vault toilets and fire rings available. Visitors are advised to bring their own water and supplies, as there are no stores or services nearby. However, the remote location provides a peaceful and secluded camping experience.
Interesting facts about the area include the presence of a historic railroad trestle nearby, which was used in the construction of the nearby hydroelectric dam. The surrounding landscape is also home to a variety of wildlife, including bald eagles, river otters, and mule deer.
The best time to visit the D62 58L Campsite is during the summer months, when temperatures average around 80°F during the day and 50°F at night. However, visitors should be prepared for hot and dry conditions, as the area is located in a desert region.
