Primitive Camping / Amazing Views
Took the family for a little adventure at Boulder Basin Campground. The Campground is set off the main highway about 5 miles and only accessible if have a suv or truck as it is a switchback dirt road. Trailers would not be able to make this trek. Pretty primitive; there are no park rangers. They do come around occasionally throughout the morning and mid day but that is it. The cell reception is not the best but that was just what we were wanting to get out of cell service range and in touch with great outdoors. Since the campground is pretty remote the bathrooms are not as cleaned as often as other campgrounds. So if you go I would suggest bringing your own portable bathroom. Make sure to bring your own water as someone had to steal the campground pump; hopefully it will get fixed but just bring your own water just in case. Was an incredible trip with some of the most spectacular views. Lots of things for the kids to explore and climb on. A hike to the lookout tower for sunset is truly magical. The campground and surrounding area is very dog friendly.
