The numbers that decide it

Recreation.gov publishes no site-level detail for this campground, so we cannot say what length of rig it takes. Call the managing office before committing to it in a large vehicle.

Lobo Canyon Picnic ground

The picnic ground is located 10 miles northeast of Grants at an elevation of approximately 7,437 feet.  Ponderosa pine, pinon, and juniper trees provide shade and some privacy for visitors.  There is a group picnic area that was built in the 1930's by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).  Remember to pay attention to road conditions and your vehicle's abilities before driving off of the main road.
