Not exactly rv suitable. Sections of long, winding, deeply rutted dirt road access have washed out exposing large rocks hard to avoid & not been graded in a while. 4x4 with good ground clearance recommended. Bring all your own water. Windy name fits! 2 Pit toilets ok but no paper. Trash overflowing on my stay. Only as clean as campers keep it. Cheap user fee is nice.

Really cool (litterally) place to visit or camp. Shh, don't tell anyone, it's a secret. Accessible by RV, the road is well graded, but a little twisty. There are only 5 campsites here on a first come, first serve basis. They cost $8 a night, but there is a restroom in a building. Each space has enough room for a small, up to 30' or so motorhome or trailer. Each space has enough room for a couple o... Really cool (litterally) place to visit or camp.

There is a fire ring as well, but check fire restrictions before use. We're going to try this place this summer!

Clean campground. Long drive on a dirt road that is steep and narrow in places. Boulders have fallen on the road restricting the width of the road. I would recommend against hauling a travel trailer over 18' up here. The road is a bit rough for a trailer anyhow. Most sites are big enough for just the trailer. Any car with decent shocks will make it. There is a fee to camp here.

DRY CAMPING. Bring water!! Also, bring cash for the fee ($8 per site at the time of writing). Beautiful sites nestled in the Pinion & Juniper. Sites 3 & 4 have particularly nice views across the valley, and are perfect for tenters. 1, 2, & 5 are more vehicle/overlander sites. Do not try to get an RV or trailer up here.

Beautiful sites nestled in the Pinion & Juniper. Sites 3 & 4 have particularly nice views across the valley, and are perfect for tenters. 1, 2, & 5 are more vehicle/overlander sites. Do not try to get an RV or trailer up here. Unless you’ve got a good rock-climbing vehicle, start at the Northern entrance on Big Wash Rd. The first 7 miles are pretty easy graded dirt - but it gets progressively rougher after that. There are only a few opportunities to pull over or turn around. Depending on ruts and gulleys, a sedan might not make the last mile or so - but my Subaru Outback had no problems. Don’t try if it’s dark or raining. I strongly suggest going back the way you came via the northern route - and *not* continuing down to Chloride unless you have a high clearance truck.
