NOTE: Entrance to campground is very steep.
GENERAL COMMENTS:
The elevation is 4,300 ft.
The campground is a spur with a loop in a stand of scattered
fragrant Ponderosa pine on Deep Creek and near the Wild and
Scenic North Fork Crooked River. While the water is not
visible from the campground, it can be heard at some sites. This
rustic pack it in, pack it out campground takes pride in its semi-
wilderness feel. With only a grass understory and little
middlestory, privacy between sites is fair.
This is bear country; practice safe food storage techniques.
