Exposed campsite, loud train.

Pros: Fire ring, concrete picnic tables, and pit toilets all available. Right next to river launch point. Sites are free for use.

Cons: Trains pass VERY close-by, and blow their horns 2-4x a night. Campsites are on a slope and surrounded by sagebrush (many are allergic) and offer minimal shade. No dumpster (trash is pack out). Wildlife corpses are prevalent, as is animal scat in campsites. 0 bars of cell service.

I encourage you to find somewhere else to camp.
