Suggestions Dispersed Camping - Sequoia National Forest
I will be making my first trip up to Sequoia National Forest and as such I am interested to hear what your suggestions for dispersed camping locations are. I am going with a group of 4, all avid outdoorsmen/women. We would prefer to be near a body of water or stream, and off the beaten path especially with the memorial day rush ahead of us. Thanks in advance!

Well Sequoia National Forest covers a very large area so it's hard to point at anything specific but it's covered in miles of forest roads that offer plenty of places to set up a tent.

As he said.
Dispersed is a little vague. Are you talking about backpacking? or car camping?

Re: Suggestions Dispersed Camping - Sequoia National Forest
My apologies for the lack of clarifying information. We would prefer to backpack. We are also ok with different sites each of the two nights, and a few mile hike between. Thanks again!

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: Suggestions Dispersed Camping - Sequoia National Forest
Thank you. I have looked through that information. I know my posts have been vague other than SNF and my groups ability, however in doing so I was hoping that people would post up their "favorite" hike-in locations or campsites rather than my specifying a certain region of the National Forest as I am open to it all. Hoping for first hand knowledge rather than picking a random spot on a map and heading out (which also has its own huge upside).maverick wrote:HI Grizzlyadamsbeard,
