Description
Deep in the shaded mixed-conifer forest of Stanislaus National Forest near the Highway 120 corridor, this quiet dispersed area offers several private sites spread across a large open clearing — with enough canopy break overhead for a satellite connection. A rough, bumpy access track keeps traffic light and rewards the trip with genuine seclusion; a high-clearance mindset helps, though a capable 2WD SUV can manage it. Fire rings are in place at the sites, and given the area's fire hazard conditions, checking current restrictions before arrival is strongly advised.
