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.

High clearance or 4WD advisedConditions on FSR 500 between 12 Mile Saddle on the east end and Rocky Ridge Lake on the west end requires travel with high clearance 4X4 vehicles with experienced operators.quoted from the driving directions
Narrow or single-lane roadTravel to the cabin after leaving US HWY 12 is on 16 miles of single lane, gravel surfaced roadways that may be peppered with large potholes/rocks that can be quite rough, even partially blocked with debris, and 11 miles of moderate difficulty, multi-use motorized trail open to vehicles 50" or less, to within 1.5 miles of the cabin, the remaining portion of the trail is closed to ATV/UTV 50" traffic and visitors must either hike or ride the remaining single track segment of the route.quoted from the driving directions
