Great free little campground

This is a little loop drive across from a day use area on Fires Creek. Pick a spot, and set up your tent. There is a concrete outhouse but no potable water. Huskins Branch runs through the middle of the area. There are fire rings disbursed around area and the loop will accommodate maybe 15 cars or so. Nice and shady and firewood can be collected from surrounding woods.
