Fishing enthusiasts and hikers can access Pine Valley Reservoir and area trails from this walk-in campground within Dixie National Forest. Mitt Moody operates as a tent-only facility where campers carry gear from the parking area to individual sites, with some positioned near a creek. The Forest Service maintains vault toilets and provides drinking water at the parking area, though campers must haul water to their sites.
Site #5 sits elevated on a hill while site #6 offers creek access at double the standard rate. Rocky ground conditions require preparation for tent setup. Cell service remains unavailable throughout the area, and the campground includes places to camp around Dixie National Forest for those preferring RV-accessible alternatives like nearby Ebenezer Bryce Campground.
Description
The Mitt Moody sites range from being tucked away in the hillside to one that overlooks a nearby stream. All items need to be packed in by foot via a short walking trail. Parking is limited to one vehicle per site. The trailhead for the Pine Valley Canal Trail and the Santa Clara River Trail begin from this loop.
