Primitive Campsite #11

There are craters on the gravel road, mind those if you're on a bike. Real nice site though. There is a mountain bike trail that goes directly through the site, so just know that. Saw a couple guys shredding down the path! Don't staple pictures to trees though like the last fellers apparently felt the need to do.

Great place to camp and close to your car.

NO SWIMMING ALLOWED IN NEARBY RESERVOIR. We came here in the height of summer assuming we'd be able to walk down to the reservoir to cool off, but there are no swimming signs everywhere, and zero mention of them online. The site is also right on a public trail so you've got almost no privacy. We are experienced campers and came prepared so it wasn't a complete bust of a trip, but we will not be coming back.

The site itself is great. Not a long walk in either. Nice little stone fire ring, good flat spots for tent and not far from the lake. However, its not far off the road so you see and hear a lot of cars. Also right off the trail so not exactly private. Woken up early by people parking at the trail head and walking by our tent. My preference would be more remote, but if you're OK with seeing some people, it's a good spot.

This was my first site since I started primitive camping in September 2020. Right in the middle of the "pandemic". I've been back there a handful of times since. I do three primitive trips a year and this site is almost always hit at lease one of those times. There is a water source at the bridge split about 1/4 mile away down Milesburn. You actually pass it on the way up. Don't use this source unless you have some kind of portable filtration system, of course.
