No Shade

This is a first come first serve camp ground. Bathroom, water, fire rings, tables. There isn’t a lot of shade so the middle of the day was HOT

Just ok

Used this spot on my annual Fall color trip in 2020 as it was one of the few spots open (either due to seasonal closures and the fire). Not a lot of privacy between neighbors as there is very little tree cover. But there is a nice creek and it's close to other scenic areas. It was fine for a night, but I wouldn't plan to come back when there are better camps nearby.

Nice little Campground

Nice little campground, bathrooms were to be as to be expected with no camp host. aka a few spider webs; however, they did not smell and were stocked with toilet paper. Was really cold and snowy. First come first serve when we went. Bear lockers and picnic tables and fire rings!
