Description
McPike Branch Road cuts through the hardwood hollows of Hoosier National Forest in southern Indiana, with this designated dispersed site sitting just off the road near McPike Pond. A small gravel pullout with a stone fire ring handles car campers, while a short trail into the forest leads to a tent-only clearing roughly a hundred yards in — with the pond accessible another stretch beyond that. The site is quiet and fairly level, with consistent light cell signal reported across visits.
