Every site here is listed for one vehicle. Agencies differ on whether a truck and the trailer it tows count as one or two, so this may not affect a fifth wheel — but it does decide whether a second car can come. Worth a call before you rely on it.

Getting there

What the agency says about the road in. For a long rig this is often the binding constraint — a site that fits is no use behind four miles of shelf road — and none of it appears in the campsite data.

Rigs not recommended on this roadBlack Mountain Road is an unpaved forest road, not recommended for low clearance vehicles or trailers.quoted from the driving directions
High clearance or 4WD advisedA four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicle is recommended with a minimum ground clearance of 6 inches.quoted from the description
