Woks if your in a pinch

Not really dispersed camping. It is a nicely graveled parking lot at a trailhead. Scenery is beautiful but you are just off the main road and there is a private residence very close. Sort of big rig friendly but make sure you are good at backing out if you have a long set up. Lot is pretty uneven so pretty tough to get level if you are staying the night. The trailhead seems to be regularly used. We also woke up to many trucks coming to the trailhead for early morning hunting. They parked all around our rv and if we had not noticed we would have been parked in.
