Go if

Anglers and self-sufficient campers who bring all their own water and don't mind a pack-it-in/pack-it-out setup will find uncrowded pond access here, especially on summer weekdays. Call the La Grande Ranger District before heading out to confirm access and get pond fishing guidan

Skip if

No water, no toilets, no bear storage, and no cell signal information means this camp demands full backcountry preparation. Anyone expecting even a vault toilet should drive elsewhere.
