πŸ‘πŸ‘ Road to campground is 9 miles off the paved road. The first 7 is oiled road base, the last 2 is gravel. Honestly, the road is in way better condition than I70. Campground is beautiful. Cash needed to pay the $16/night fee. Vault toilets are clean. 21 sites. About 6 are pull throughs. Another 6ish a...

Pine Creek Trailhead
Hiking area
πŸ‘πŸ‘ Incredible Hike (down 288 steps) into the canyon. Once at the bottom, the trail is flat for a few miles, then you come back and up the stairs. It isn't bad unless you have leg or knee issues.
