Hells canyon first review

Spots are small and close together but the camping is free. Vaulted toilets and fire rings but no bear boxes. Not near the river the mosquitos start biting as soon as you get out of the truck so pack bug spray. The two campsites above us were taken over buy multiple cars I’d say 20 through out the day from Kayakers in a group who let their dogs run amuck. That was the only disappointment.
