Accessible via a rough road, this dispersed camping area sits along the river with partially obstructed water views. Campfires are allowed, and visitors can reach sites by driving in or walking to more secluded spots. The access road presents challenges but leads to open terrain that provides clear sightlines for stargazing after dark.
River proximity offers both scenic value and potential water access, though views face some natural obstructions from vegetation or terrain features. The area accommodates both vehicle-accessible camping and walk-in options for those seeking more separation from the road. Forks Campground provides developed facilities just north for campers wanting established amenities.
