About
Most of the national forests are free to set up your own campsite. A great story can be hatched from camping with friends while you get away from it all. It is possible to go camping miles into wilderness or only off a forest road in designated areas across the forests. When dispersed camping, it is advised to bring everything you need and to follow the " leave no trace" principles unless there is a fire ring nearby. To get the most up to date info on distributed camping, please contact the district office.
