Description
Ten miles from the Macks Canyon Trailhead is a decrepit cattle corral. Most of this got burned up in the 2018 Substation Fire.
There aren't many campsites on the south end of the Deschutes River Trail, but this is one possible spot. There is a flat area right next to the trail you could put a couple of tents. There are a couple of similar areas nearby. There's also a stream that crosses the trail that might be better drinking water than the river.
Being right next to the trail, this wouldn't be a very good campsite, except that there are so few people this far away from the trailhead.
