Turtle Hollow Campsite

Fun little spot. We came here with our Boy Scout troop. Not too far in for beginners. The camp was pretty big and clean. Had a nice little fire pit and a tiny stream for our water needs. After our stay we made sure to pack out all our trash and leave it better than how we found it. We had a blast.

Great site for pioneer camping. Small water creek near the site is great source of water. Make sure to bring in your water filters equipment. This site has fire ring and a small bench.

I stayed at the turtle buff side. This was a very cool camp site. Very peaceful and beautiful this time of year. The site was spread out and hilly which made it interesting to level my tent. I can't wait to go back stay on the turtle hollow side.

This is a WELL USED--semi-backcountry campsites, where people who can't pack in, pack out stay. --There were food scraps all around the fire ring that attracted swarms of ants. You could see the food remnants. (Note: don't dump your left over food in a fire ring) --No privy or designated poop area so "lovely people" who think tissue paper breaks down (LEAVE NO TRACE) have left behind a cotton field about ten feet from the tent site (100 feet minimum!!!) --The park should STRESS leave no trace principles. Also, if you love the sound of cars on a road at all hours of the night and the sound of people's dogs parking and music from the nearest RV park, it's also for you. The rest of us will be in Vogel's Backcountry.

Be polite and pick up your trash before you leave. Very clean, no bears ate me which was a plus. Great 23 mile hike.
