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 roadGPS devices and mapping programs may take campers onto steep grades and gravel or dirt country roads not suitable for RV or trailer travel.quoted from the driving directions
