Away from other camps

Found this place by accident, it is right after fish creek campground. If your looking for a free campground head on here, although there is no toilets or water access it is still an awesome place to be if you want to be away from people. You can play your loud music and no one will hear you or complain. Good place to hike into the woods and explore what nature has to offer. If you go deeper in by car make sure it is a 4x4 because sand is very soft and you might get stuck. At this time in October it is super cold these 2 days we’re at 30* all day. Bring the proper clothing.

Sitefirst site, there are more sites in but will require a 4x4
