Customer Reviews
3 solid camp sites with good fire rings and bear bag hangs. Another few sites a little ways up the hill on the Lower Mt Cammerer Trail.
Great camp site only about 1.5 hours hike from the Crosby Campground Trailhead. It is a pretty easy hike with little elevation gain. Campground 35 has 5 designated camp sites. Campsite A being the best with the most flat spots for tent set up. Campsite C is the next best spot with 2 small flat spots to accommodate 2 tents. Campsite D & E are horseback sites. There is a small creek running through the site for water. No great views other that the surrounding woods which are always beautiful. This would be an easy in and out site for a 1 nighter or a great place to set up for the night on longer hikes. ENJOY!

Nicely secluded, but most of the upper campsite where we stayed was on a slope and covered in roots. Not very well suited for tent camping, definitely recommend bringing a hammock.
We rode horses for a week rode in 3 states. A camped at Big Creek. Seen a mama bear & she had 2 babies with her
