Site BASS

“Due to current Recreation.gov system limitations, this site is listed as a group site, however the maximum group size is 6 and it does not resemble a group site but rather a very small site. This is a single site, and has a level walk to the site. The site faces north, so getting a breeze is limited. Views of the sunrise and sunset are also limited. There is room for two large tents. The site can get muddy during the wet season and rainy weather. There is no access to hiking trails from the site, and it is not suitable for backpacking in. The landing is rather rocky with shallow water. There is a nice swimming area near the landing.”
