Site WOLF

DEER-2

“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 located up on a hill, and has room for 1-2 tents. The site is nice for a breeze and doesn’t have much underbrush. The site is good for afternoon sun and sunsets, and has easy access to hiking. The landing is sandy with weeds making it not great for swimming. It has a steep shoreline at the landing area.”
