Tres Piedras

Turn west on 64, 1st right hand turn after Ranger station. After crossing cattle guard and big green water tank You will see several good pull thru and back in spots. Big Rigs should not go past the Y in the road. We have a 34 ft 5th wheel and pulled to that point fine. The area is being cleaned up so there were piles of dead wood everywhere, but it was a good Place to stop overnight. Our bloodhound loved the freedom.

I scouted this out. The access road is very deeply rutted, and almost impassable to anything but a pickup truck. People have made tracks through the trees around some of the ruts, but you couldn't get anything bigger than a van through those detours. It's a pity, because the campsites are very nice, with stone BBQ pits. The only place you could camp with an RV is an open area just inside the gate, where the previous reviewer camped, but it's right next to an ugly old structure.

We stopped here in mid-September while on our way north. If you are coming from the south via Hwy 285, turn left (west) at the intersection with Hwy 64 and go a couple of miles to Forest Road 64G, on the right. We stayed on a level patch of dirt about 100 feet inside the gate - we did not go further back through the trees. It was 38 degrees that night but the dark sky was beautiful.

Well-maintained road leads to several areas for camping. The best is a small meadow about 400 yards from the cattle guard on the left.

There was some trash left from past campers -- mostly bottle caps and plastic forks, but clean otherwise. In the 5 days we were there, I think we saw 2 or 3 cars. Very nice to walk through the forest and even to hike to the nearby climbing area to the East.

No AT&T coverage. Veirzon got 1-2 bars of 3G w/ 2-3 with a booster.
