11/10 great camping spot. Provided address will take you slightly past the road into the tower… it’s about 100-200 yards prior to where maps will take you. Right after the fork in the road. Unless there’s substantial snow build up, you should be able to drive to the site.

I did get the heater working, when lighting pilot you must manually pull it out as it’s gummed up. The refrigerator is not even plumbed in. We cleaned the place a lot better than when we entered and left water in a pump dispenser to rinse your hands. It needs work, and has really gone downhill since our last visit 17 years ago. The Forest Service needs to spend the increased nightly rates to maintain it or it will be lost forever.

Another great trip to the tower, with facilities and views that can't be beat. It was left reasonably clean by the previous users, and has the same bits and pieces that have been left in years past; pots, pans, plates, silverware some basics salt and pepper etc. We left a new bucket for use with the pulley to the top, as we have found that helpful in the past. Always the highlight of our camping season!

Probably one of the best USFS experiences out there. Impossible to book but worth it..
