I love 18 Road campground. It has the best campground accessible class 1 e-bike legal trails around. You must haul in your own water and haul out all your waste. Bring your own TP, because sometimes like on the weekends the pit toilets have none.
I love the trails. The dirt team that made them should be rewarded with more trails.
