Closed but no Signage

Driving by I would not have known this was closed. It looked to be in bad shape.

Colson Canyon Campground

Colson is basic, fun, old school camping. This place has been here forever. I'm sure in its day it was packed but now it's always quiet. Beautiful area to get away but close enough, you don't have to go far. No bathrooms. Bring water. But 100% recommend.
