Stay here to explore the canyon

So we discovered that if you go past the turn that the dyrt tells you to take you will find the actual San Lorenzo Canyon road. It is marked and easy to find. It was about 2 miles past the area the dyrt had marked. This spot has a few dispersed spots right after you start down the road. If you have 4 wheel drive and can unhook and leave your trailer or if you have an ATV I would suggest parking here and then driving into the canyon. The sites are large and level and out here you have cell service. You are close to the freeway but the road noise wasn’t to bad. We would most definitely come back here to stay.
