Camping no longer allowed

There is now a lot of signage prohibiting camping. Go to Pinion Pine Dispersed Camping up the road to the north east.

Definitely come here for the hike to th hot prongs though. The road accommodated our big Revel van easily.

Road is very rutted and would be virtually impassable in any sort of heavy rain. I did sucessfully get my honda civic down the road on a prayer, but was only successful because it was very dry. Other than that, the view was pretty and camping comfortable. There was also a nearby hike down to the Colorado River and natural hot spring, so definitely worth it!
