Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
I was headed for the spot listed at Garnet Hill tonight but it was getting late and I didn’t want to risk it being an iffy spot. I noticed this pull off on the way and there are a TON of options for dispersed camping (tent or small RV/Van)!
The wind does not seem like it is going to stop and that’s what makes this place even better: it has a TON of bushes to somewhat shield you. Setting up my tent and crawling around, I realized that the sandy ground, which appears hard and is packed down, is actually incredibly soft. No facilities are here so this will be another spot where Leave No Trace principles must be followed. I have a solid 2 bars of Verizon LTE as well. I’m the only one here for the night, so it is quiet and a great place to see the stars!
I would definitely try to come in on Pole Canyon Rd. as it looks pretty established compared to whatever road Google Maps took me in on (no good for my low-clearance Honda Fit, but I made it work). It looks like a bunch of different dirt roads are around so feel free to go a different way if you have the vehicle for it!
