The official Yocum Ridge Trail ends at mile 8.6, but you can continue another mile up a trail just as good as the official trail. There's a knoll with a spot you could sleep, but just barely. About 0.2 miles further is a nice campsite. You shouldn't find too many people here. | The official Yocum Ridge Trail ends at mile 8.6, but you can continue another mile up a trail just as good as the official trail.
