The sound of passing trains punctuates the camping experience at this free dispersed site along the Shaver's Fork River. Campers need vehicles with decent ground clearance to navigate the access road down to the spot, which sits approximately 20 feet from active railroad tracks.
Recent maintenance work has left stacked firewood and seeded areas for future grass growth. The shallow river provides a water source for those with filtration systems and flows through a designated catch-and-release fishing zone. Other dispersed options around Monongahela National Forest include nearby Stonecoal Dispersed Camping just over a mile away. Note that pets are not permitted at this location.
