Mammoth Dispersed

My expectation was dispersal camping but it’s more like a planned campsite for free, first come but plenty of other dispersal camping in the area so if you don’t get a spot you will have a easy time finding another location. The creek is gorgeous but the flow was extremely fast and very loud. I opted for a campsite further from the creek and it was still loud at night. There was a large amount of RV’s camping in the area, for the most part they were respectful about not running their generators constantly, just be aware that you can be close to one another if you choose to camp right next to the creek. There is several toilets, one near the campsites and one near the day use only sites. There is fire pits available but still need to check if fires are permitted during the time you camp. Wonderful little free campground, I’m definitely coming back again.

The area is BEAUTIFUL! There is a nice stream at the camp and lots of OHV trails. We went for 4th of July weekend. Came in Thursday night and had no problem finding a spot, however by Saturday it was crazy busy. I doubt it gets real busy without the holiday though. No wood fires allowed here and the rangers were all over trying to bust people for fires. The weather was nice and cool and it was easy to get to. About a miles down a dirt road. We got our flat bed trailer down it and saw multiple people make it down with their smaller campers.

Came in on Friday, no spots available, nice spot right on the creek. Probably a better idea during the week if you like some peace a quiet. Ended up camping off a near by 4x4 trail. Ended up being a quiet relaxing weekend with no neighbors :)
