My Experiences

Let me be your guide. What makes this book unique is that all of the campgrounds listed were visited by yours truly in the spring and summer of 2005. What this means is, no more coming to junctions and having directions that read “turn northwest, or southeast. No more directions that refer to a sign or a landmark that isn’t there. This book is pure “turn right”, “turn left” or “go straight.” If you’ve got a map and can remember that “left” is the driver’s side and “right” is the passenger’s side, you’ll find these campgrounds. If you came out into the wilderness without even bothering to bring a map, well, I can’t help you, except to recommend that you get yourself to the nearest Forest Service office. They’ve got some dandy ones.

I started out by gathering directions to the campgrounds from every available source and then set out on the road with my thermos, sleeping bag and tent. I started out with those other directions, and I spent plenty of time being lost. But now, you won’t have to do that, because I wrote down the directions in this book as I drove them and I actually went all the way to every campground, and camped in many of them.

NOTE: I have made every attempt to visit each and every campground listed. There are times however, when because of snow, washed out roads or other natural developments, I was unable to blunder my way to every site. I did, however get as close as possible and give, what I believe are enough directions to get you there.
