Gifford Pinchot NF Dispersed near Packwood

Gifford Pinchot National Forest stretches south from the foothills near Packwood, and this dispersed stretch of forest road sits just minutes from town on gently rolling forested terrain. Multiple pull-offs are scattered along a smooth gravel forest road — the surface is well-maintained relative to typical backcountry tracks, though sites are slightly off-camber. Spots fill up on summer evenings, so arriving early or continuing further up the road usually turns up an open site.
