Rough Roads, Total Solitude

The road out there is rough! Definitely take an AWD or 4WD vehicle. The campsites are located just off the road and are super primitive. I think the rough roads kind of deter people because I didn't see anyone while there. The views are great and seeing the stars in the open sky at night was awesome!
