Nomadic camping

Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

The property is tucked away from a side street with a small access drive. The hallow is sloping up to the underside of cliffs, surrounding the property on 3 sides. Climb to overlook the Valley and discover any of the 6 springs... or find a new one. They all converge into a beautiful creek. Enjoy the creek-side quiet and explore the landscape to find native wildlife. Blueberry bushes growing wild on the property. Test your off-grid skills but beware of some of the more dangerous local wildlife. NO FIRES. NO GUNFIRE. NO FIRES. There are 2 designated camping areas creekside, see the property map for locations. Vehicles must stay before the gate at AREA 1. Mind the 8' clearance at the access road! Larger vehicles may want to stay at AREA 1. AREA 2 is behind the gate and is accessible by foot only. The access road gets you close to the gate to park. This area is in the process of being cleared for better access but can be used already. Be safe and have fun exploring!Cut access road over a small mount. Turn to the side to park the car/camper or continue on along the creek to a cleared creak-side flat area with a small abandoned smoker cabin (not recommended for use, other than emergency shelter from rain). The site slopes up on 3 sides until it reaches the bottom of the cliffs. There are trails on top of the cliffs - accessible but not part of the tract. NOTE: 8' MAX CLEARANCE ON ACCESS ROAD!
