I enjoyed hearing the sound of the creek every night as I fell asleep.  We camped in site #12 and it was the farthest up the hill.  We hauled all of our stuff up and down every day because there is a lot of bear activity in the area.  My husband got a peek at him our second night and the campers at site 9 (down the hill) also were visited by him.  Sites 10 and 11 share a bear box.  Site 12 has their own box up the hill from the campsite.  The biggest negative is that the walk to the vault toilet is 20 minutes round trip from Site 12.  Cheap camping and a very unique experience.  Highly recommend!", "reviewRating": { "@type": "Rating", "ratingValue": 4, "bestRating": 5, "worstRating": 1 } } ] } ``` [robots.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/robots.txt) · [llms.txt](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/llms.txt) · [sitemap](http://ssr-app-zpimxgrglq-uc.a.run.app/sitemap_index.xml)
