The Squirrel Springs Campsites are about 9 miles from Highway 487 along a narrow dirt road. We past 2 or 3 already taken spots and a group site before reaching these sites. There are two sites next to each other and a pit toilet. We stayed at the one nearest the bathroom.

This was a pretty nice site with a picnic table and fire ring with grill grate. This was a pretty good site to crash for free, although the dirt road was tedious. Beware this is also at a higher elevation than the Lehman Caves area. We woke up to a couple inches of snow.
