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.

Unpaved approachTurn west and cross the highway on Forest Road 041 and continue just over 3 miles on a maintained gravel road, to the campground.quoted from the driving directions
