Day 2 night's stay. Reserved a tent spot online, confirmed with John via phone. Upon my arrival, John greeted me outside the check-in office. He familiarized me with the grounds, tent spots, shower house, and firewood location. The tent spots are primitive but there is power to charge your electronics while you shower. The stalls are deep and narrow, (which doubled as a bike wash the next morning. The trail was so dry and dusty the week I rode it due to the lack of rain for weeks that my bike looked like a ghost bike after each day. The drivetrain needed a rinse every day) so I wheeled it into the farthest stall and rinsed off the chain and cassette. Good to go for Day 3! In the evening, I enjoyed a campfire, the sounds of coyote howling to each other and the stars twinkling above. Another $10 bargain!!
