FR50240 Dispersed

Coordinates: 34.06320,-94.62877. Camped here in mid-November 2025. A large remote dispersed site at a turn-around at the end of Forest Road 50240 - on national forest land. The open site is about 1.5 miles from Canoe Road on a narrow dirt track. This track is rough in a few places, but a 2wd passenger car can make it. I had no problems driving on it with my AWD camper van. The track is wide enough in a few places for careful passing. I do not recommend attempting this track after a heavy rain. The site has a small rock fire ring in the middle of the turn-around. The site is clear of high weeds and saplings, and can easily fit 3 or 4 vehicles. It is maintained by a local family who use it occasionally for extended family barbecues. Except for a few distant gun shots and some low volume highway noise from US Hwy 70, the site is peaceful. Only a few vehicles came by during my stay. Tent camping is possible; not sure about hammock camping. There is very little shade; Starlink connectivity is possible. Received AT&T and T-Mobile service. This was an okay spot to spend the night.
