Secret place
It was an adventure to get to from route 36. It takes you on a forested, cliff-side adventure. There were a few downed trees that would have blocked the road, but luckily the paths are well-maintained. I came here on 4th of July weekend hoping that the crowds hadn't found it and sure enough, I mostly had the campground all to myself, aside from one couple and their dog. I heard a kid yelling in the distance so I'm guessing there's another campground nearby. There were about 5 or 6 sites to choose from. Most are right on the Susan River. Be prepared for bugs zzz-ing in your ear; bring mosquito spray. There is a water spigot and one toilet booth full of bullet holes that graciously had toilet paper. There are two info stations about respecting mountain lions and being mindful of fires. It looked as if the wood from those downed trees were shared to the campsites: free firewood! I didn't use them. I slept in my car. No reception for phones. Temperature in early July was pretty moderate.
