Forest Road 568 - Dispersed Camping

We went in mid-march and the road there was decently slick. However, after turning a corner we had to stop because a tree was in the road. We lost our momentum and had to sleep in the truck for the night. I’m sure it’s a nice place but be prepared!

Easy to find. A little rough getting in, but we made it in a small SUV. Not sure how well a car will do.

Lots of wildlife driving in. We saw 6 big elk and several deer.

Cold at night but it warmed up when the sun came out.

Lots of fire pits, but if you’re in a tent the ground is uneven and rocky.

If you don't feel like dropping 20 bucks a night or more for a spot to camp, this is a great alternative.  FR 568 is about a mile long and has a ton of all types of dispersed camping on both sides of the road, from little tent sites to pull-throughs for campervans and trailers.

Not a terrible road at all.  I drive a little, low-clearance hatchback and was able to make it all the way to the end of the road and back out while scoping out sites.  Go the whole length and see what your options are so you can pick the best one.
