Lower Piedra Campground
The Lower Piedra Campground, located on the west bank of the Piedra River, offers 17 large, level sites with plenty of shade. The river is heavily fished, but good catches are still possible. Services include potable water, trash pickup, vault toilets, picnic tables, and fire grates. NOTICE: Dispersed camping is not allowed within 100 yards of either side of Forest Road 621 leading to the Lower Piedra Campground (from the cattle guard to the campground boundary).
