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.

Rocky Branch Shelter #1

Rocky Branch Shelter sleeps 6-8, with a fire ring, toilet, and 3 tent platforms for tenting. The shelter sits along the Rocky Branch River just outside of the Presidential-Dry River Wilderness. The Rocky Branch Trail is now open all the way through. It re-opened in September 2015, 4 years after closure due to damage sustained during Tropical Storm Irene.
