Awesome place to ride. Early summer there is a creek flowing through and its beatiful camling spot. Very family friendly for camping and riding. Trails are awesome you can ride all the way to lake pilsbury from here!

Great spot to combine dirt bike and camping. Vault toilets. The road up to Penny Pines is rough, so take your time.
Lots of dirt bike trails in the area. I'll be back to help with a trail maintenance day.

Beautiful campground surrounded by still living trees after the devastating fires. Amazingly beautiful getaway for dirt bike and ADV riders. So msny dirt roads to explore, single track too!
