Overview

Traditionally used, dispersed campsites are undeveloped sites along backroads where people have camped for years (i.e., these have, at the least, a bare-dirt parking area and a fire ring). Dispersed camping is allowed at some 300 sites throughout the preserve, but not along paved roads, not in day-use areas, not within 0.25 miles of water sources. Other than a fire ring (metal or stone), there are no facilities (i.e., no water, restrooms, or picnic tables) and no camping fees at the dispersed campsites. Do not drive over bushes, expand the parking areas, or make new campsites. The park has inventoried the location of more than 300 traditional campsites, so if you try to make a new one, they will know about it. People use dispersed campsites to get away from it all, so given a choice, be considerate and camp away from other campers; this preserves everyone's tranquility and solitude.
