Another shady pine tree camp

Large campground with few people in Mid May. Quiet well spaced sites with tables and fire pits. Even had a enough sun through the trees to solar charge.

Clean campground, potable water, pit toilets, paved walking paths around creek and campground.

Great place to stay a couple of days and hike Black Canyon Wilderness.
