Yellow post

This is my first time solo camping and this was a great starter! It’s really quiet all day long and every where you look is absolutely beautiful. I drove up here in my Honda civic and I saw some truck but this is a super narrow road and my car barely fit.-.

During cold times you might need to be ready to shovel the road. There’s not enough snow for chains but I saw a Jeep wrangler in front of me get stuck.

Dog friendly as well, there’s a lot of open space.

There’s my rant

Free sites right along road

Just a couple of minutes from Running Springs on the road to the Children's Forest and up to the Keller Peak Fire Lookout. Each Yellow post is a good distance from each other but the road is close, easy to get to for quick forest getaway.
