Great site! Excellent panoramic view. Ease of entry with a large van. Road conditions for my site were just fine. Fire ring was great, grill top in great working order. If I had arrived any later (without much daylight) it would have been tough to find the site, thankfully I had a bit of light left! Great experience!
