Elk Lake Campground reviews
3They have the usual vault toilets. Have a nice lake to swim/kayak, and it has fish if you're lucky to catch some. The campgrounds are great; they have fire rings, picnic tables, and good spacing for tents and vehicles. Also, there are several hikes you can go on for some great views.
My suv has a clearance of 8.1 inches and in a handful of spots I scraped across the ground. It is very rough and I would say it is intermediate difficulty. If you've never done something like this before take your time and let some air out of your tires because it is worth it. Good luck! 8/13/23
The road is VERY rough, especially for the last 3 miles. These pictures are from May 30th, 2023.
Only high vehicles can make it. There are many deep holes and grooves in the road.
