The Needles Lookout Trail Primitive Campsites
Reviewed Aug. 19, 2018

Convenient, primitive camping for rock climbers

Dispersed camping exists at the trailhead for The Needles which is at the end of FS-21S05, a three mile dirt road. Camping is free. The only amenity is a pit toilet, so you need to bring your own water and pack out all your trash. No fire pits, if you want to use a stove you should get a fire permit ahead of time. Very quiet, plenty of room to spread out. Gets cool during summer nights still.
