The Best Camping Near Willamette National Forest, Oregon

Wife and I come by here on our way to the Blue Pools. Looks like lots of trails to snow shoe. 

Definitely go up the road and give Blue Pools a hike.

Lots of trails for winter activities

 Right off Hwy 126 is this dirt parking lot where camping  is allowed. There is access to multiple hikes from this point. 

  

Over night parking without permit May - Oct ok, but inside a vehicle only, no tent camping allowed per sign in winter as snowplow drivers cannot see tents as well. 

  

No toilets or trash in this area so pack in and pack out. No cell reception.
