Buckhorn Road Trailhead Parking Camp (Year-Round Access & Burn Scar Views)

The Setup: Large forest parking area located just past the ranger station/work camp historic marker along Buckhorn Road, functioning as both a trailhead access point and informal overnight camping area.

Amenities: None reported.

The Highlights: Spacious wooded parking area with year-round plowed access, making it useful for winter and shoulder-season camping. The surrounding Cameron Peak burn scar remains visible on nearby hillsides, while this specific area retained enough tree cover for shade and atmosphere. Open sky gaps still allow for good Starlink and solar exposure.
