  • Hi Andy,

    The dimensions of each campsite would be very helpful, especially for those with campers. Map looks great compared to other topographic maps I’ve seen, thanks for all your efforts!

  • Are there any campgrounds in this area or is it just first come type of deals? I would hate to drive 5 hrs and not be able to get a site. Thx

    • There is excellent Verizon cell service at the campsites along Horseshoe Lake especially around sites 7 and 8. I remote worked 3 days during the pandemic in June 2020 from the lake shore. It was delightful!
