Very windy but decent

There was quite a bit of road noise during the day. The area is pretty patchy from fire damage with a lot of downed trees and debris, also some severe rut areas. The designated areas do have quite a variety, and I did see some Subaru car tent campers, some classic hardtop trailers and obviously some off-roaders camping. Temp was mid-high 80s down to high 50s during the day, and low 50s down into 30s in the evening.
