Pasayten Wilderness encompasses 531,000 acres, skirting more than 50 miles of Canada's border and encompassing the crest of the Cascades. The Wilderness encompasses almost 150 peaks over 7,500 feet in elevation, 160 or more bodies of water, and at least as many waterways, some turbulent enough to have carved sharp canyons with sheer walls. Rugged ridges in the west flatten into more open plateaus toward the east, with deep drainages on both sides. Its diverse forest changes from fir, cedar, western hemlock in the west to fir, pine, and larch in the east. This region provides habitat for deer, moose, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, the gray wolf, and is home to the largest population of lynx in the Lower 48. Snow falls between October and May, and the hard packed snow may block the high western-side trails sometimes until early August. Eastern-side trails are usually free of snow by early July. More than 600 miles of trails provide access to the Wilderness, many of them deceptively gentle at the start and become progressively labor-intensive as they climb up multiple switchbacks into the higher elevations. The Pacific Crest Trail (PCT) crosses the area north-south for about 32 miles. The Boundary Trail begins in the southeast corner of the Wilderness and meanders north and west for over 73 miles near the Canadian border to eventually join the Pacific Crest Trail. Help protect your wilderness by following wilderness regulations and using Leave No Trace principles.

Great campsite with an awesome view. Sandy dirt camping site near the USGS sensor station. No fires today due to high fire danger, but there was a pit in the camp. Tent right on the ridge. Dirt road was 12 miles up the mountain. Lots of switchbacks, but passible in a sedan. Takes 45 mins to get up. Take shady pass road to the top.

Great spot with plenty of sites. Lots of room at your site and between neighbors. Super close to the river. There were a lot of people, mainly families, but everyone was super respectful and it honestly made me feel safer and a solo traveler. Would definitely go back.
Guide
Short trip from the town of Loomis. Only a mile or so of gravel road. The campground has 10 sites. It sits between Forde lake and a pond we call reflection. It is or was a part of an irrigation system. The gravel road is fairly busy with plenty of dust boiling up. I recommend not taking the first site in even though it looks like it would accommodate a 40 ft rig. Four of the sites looked able to handle our 27 ft trailer. A few are slide in camper sized. Not busy during our stay and was a less improved area near by with more sites. Remember lake and pond so mosquitoes are present.
Traveler
A couple spots washed out and need high clearance but otherwise just a long slow switchbacky road to the top.
ScoutNice, quiet dispersed camping next to Sullivan Pond near Winthrop Washington. Recommend 4wd with good clearance. Washington Discover Pass required.
ScoutLots of spots between Entiat River Rd 19 and this location. Ground is mostly a fine dirt.
TravelerNear the peak of Fox Mountain, this area is at one of the highest points in the area. Great cell service(AT&T) and a amazing view for both sunrise and sunset!
Traveler
A place to sleep. You can set up tent on the elevated ridge you see as you drive in off the pull-off from the hwy. But be mindful of the cactuses, these are small but quite sharp.
Guide
A wonderful site, with awesome lake access.
ScoutYou guys who built this site #*&ck up's That's all I have to say!!!!!!!!
TravelerWas here last summer and the bugs were BAD, like hiding in the car and tent bad.
Left with more bug bites than I could count, but was a nice and open space at least.
Lots of spots even late on a holiday weekend, but definitely was not out first choice
GuideLoons and Coyotes are great music. Beautiful Lakes (Sidley & Molson) near historical Old Molson! Definitely dispersed camping in roadside pullouts with outhouse supplied by Fish & Game. Traffic is very low even though they were trucking out hay while we were there. Fishing slow in August but nice size and were told the town has an ice fishing tournament every winter. We met some great locals and were told of some of the horrible things some dispersed campers have done, come on folks....pack everything in and pack out everything too!! Verizon cell reception was present but the Canadian cell towers are strongest so beware.
TravelerBeautiful lake, long, big and I hear they have fish (not a fisherman). Has several points of access to the lake.
TravelerThis is a dry Camp only. , no water/power ect. Has a small lake or a large pond? With a beautiful view of the valley floor.
