We drove all the way to the third and last parking lot and didn’t find any previously established campgrounds so we ended up just setting up next to the river. It’s a beautiful area but people haven’t been cleaning up after themselves and there’s a lot of beer cans and fishing line scattered around. There’s a lot to explore and it wasn’t crowded at all. We usually bring a water filter if we are camping by a river or stream, but this is the upper salt river and even when you filter it the water tastes extremely salty so we brought water with us.
