Boondocking camping
Camp Host is very friendly and helpful. This is a pack in pack out camp ground with vault/pit toilet. No water or shower. Sites have picnic table and fire pit with grill. Access to camp ground is on a rock dirt road that goes from single to double lane off and on. I drove a 21foot bus with a 16x7 tandem axle trailer.
Average camping
Just your typical camping. Hillside views visible to few sites. Decent cell service for Verizon. Beautiful ride back down.
