Madera Canyon on Proctor Road

Fairly calm and quiet camping sites, spread out enough so you almost don't know you have neighbors. Can be cold or windy in the winter months.

We've seen Golden Eagles, Falcons, Deer and Turkey, listened to the Mocking birds. Lots of wild life.

Only downside might be the bees during the day, but if you stay in the shade they largely leave you alone. Bring your own shade, there is not much here.

You can stay up to 14 days in a 60 day period in the National Forest.

Took my Jeep off the main road onto Proctor to check out the dispersed camping. I would not bring my 30’ class A in there. I’ve had it in some knarly places. Looks like some OK spots not too far off the main road but…Don’t go there unless you have a high clearance vehicle. i.e. 4x4 Van, 4x4 pickup and camper. Not that you need 4x4, you just need the clearance.
