No water supply. USFS should take over management from NID.
Ryan S ★ 1 · Aug 2025
Reserved spot #3 which is a shared parking pad with #2. There are no spots for a tent and the fire pit is also shared. None of this is disclosed. Pictures should be posted of each spot as the site supports it but it’s not done. Sadly, the campground is not maintained well from what it sounds like early retirement opted by numerous forest serviceman in that area.
