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 road
The dirt road leading to the campground is very rough and not recommended for large RVs and travel trailers.
quoted from the description - Steep grades or switchbacks
Large camp trailers and RVs that can manage the steep access road are accommodated with some pull-through sites in B-Loop.
quoted from the description - Unpaved approach
Campground is located approximately 1 mile up the rough dirt road.
