Hikers and anglers exploring the forested terrain of Wenatchee National Forest have a free drive-in base camp option along Iron Creek Road. It's dispersed camping, so there are no designated sites. The surrounding tree cover provides shade, and the area sits near Swauk Campground for campers who want a more structured setup just to the east.
Description
There are many undeveloped camping locations on the forest. Generally there are no amenities available, such as restrooms, water or garbage dumpsters. All trash and waste must be packed out.
