.....
On the 139, head west at the forest road marked with Post 43N27 - you’ll see an open white wooden gate. Continue .3 Miles from the highway to a dirt clearing on the left close to the dirt road.
Dirt road with some ruts and rocks - easy with our 4WD, Might be difficult for 2WD or low profile vehicles. A couple of low hanging branches that we had to bypass by steering slightly off the path. Some tallish, dry grass down the centerline of the road.
This was the only good clearing we saw. You’ll have to pull up a slight embankment to access the spot, which is about 25 feet off the road when pulled all the way forward.
We saw a couple of trucks pass by in the morning, but no one disturbed us. Close to the HWY so you can hear the occasional car/truck passing by. Otherwise totally quiet and peaceful. Nice and level with lots of sun for your solar, actually not much shade in this particular area.
No service with Cricket, had 2 bars with T-Mobile on US cellular network. Had good enough service to stream a show.
This is a primitive camping spot in the forest, so no amenities. Please remember to pack out your trash and leave no trace.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Easy to find pull off, but couldn’t find the dirt lot pictured. Plenty of places to park. 3 bars Verizon. Not difficult to drive in a FWD Honda Fit.
Report Check-InHad T-Mobile service. I didn’t stay the night but I made dinner here. It was a bit loud next to the road but would be decent for one night.
