Early season riding is hard. Campgrounds are closed. Forest service gates are closed. Downed trees are everywhere. This is about 2 miles from pavement on the other side of that locked gate. We came 60 miles from the other direction. Rode around in the dark looking for a way out until 10:00 then decided to just set up camp here and figure it out in the morning. Sometimes you just have to know when to stop for the night and look at the problem with fresh eyes. The campsite was actually great, but the real dissapointment was no dinner.
