About this campground

This is one of our backcountry sites which is a near-wilderness single party site and accessible only by foot or boat. These sites are first-come, first-served. There is one site on this lake with has a fire grate, a latrine and may have a picnic table. A few reminders: hang food packs, put your fire out each time when leaving your campsite, treat or boil all water, wash yourself and dishes at least 150 ft from any body of water, pack out all garbage and Leave No Trace. Use a Forest map to locate campsites and accesses. (You can purchase a map on line at http://www.nationalforeststore.com/ or at any of the district offices or by mail.)
