We booked a week long trip and had use three different campsites. Recreation.gov charged us $30 in reservation fees in addition to the cost of the campsites.

Really awesome for climbers. Campsites though are a little small and close to one another. There seemed to only be one real spot for a tent at our site.

Love this Canyon. Great place, all the climbing is just a short hike from most campsites. And that's not even mentioning the fall colors! They were perfect while we were there!

A unique campground in a unique place, a canyon with walls of amazing Maple Canyon Formation conglomerate, of Precambrian age, with anything from pebbles to boulders in it. The campsites are situated off the unpaved road, which is steep. Nice views of the stars at night if you sleep with the flysheet off. Nice and cool in early October at 38F. Really liked this place and hope to return for a wider explore.

Great camping and climbing. Local thief stealing camping gear left at sites. Make sure all is hidden or stored if you take your vehicle from your site.
