Overall a great experience. A bit more traffic traveling up to the top of the mountain than we thought. Had one encounter with a local who seemed to not like the fact we were there.

Turquoise Lake is truly a beautiful area. We boondocked without electricity or water which is not what we usually do. It was worth it for the beauty there.

CAMP HOSTS WERE RUDE AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THEY DO NOT OWN THE CAMPGROUND, BUT THAT THEY ARE THERE TO TAKE CARE OF THE CAMPERS NEEDS.
