Degree of levelness: Once you're back from the actual rock point, the entire site is level .. Number of level tent sites: Plenty of tent sites. North exposure: Protected from the north winds by intervening trees. East exposure: While the landing is open to the east, the tentsites are protected by the intervening trees. South exposure: Full forest to the south. West exposure: Both point and tentsites are protected by trees.
General description: Good for large group, due to plenty of tentsites. However, there isn't any real view to enjoy in any direction. Bugs could be a problem due to sheltered nature of entire site. Overall accessibility: Good. Thanks to Jeffrey McMurtrie of Maps By Jeff for supplying the base map. Submission March, 2012 by Barry Bridgeford .. visited July, 2011 |
