1) This Column tells which of the 4 USFS Ranger Districts that
we manage in the MBS, that the campground is in.
Click on the district name to see District maps
2) Column 2 is the subarea in the district where the
campground is located.
3) Column 3 lists the campground. Click
on each name to go to the individual campground page. All MBS
campgrounds have 60% reservation sites
4) Column 4 shows the nightly fee for a single campsite. This
pays for one vehicle and, if applicable a trailer or towed vehicle.
5) The EV Fee is the fee for an extra vehicle above what is paid
for in column 4. Each single site is allowed two vehicles (one
vehicle is paid with the camp fees and one is an extra vehicle.)
6) Some campgrounds have day use areas and these charge a day use
fee.
7) Some campgrounds have multiple sites, the fee for these sites
if applicable is shown here. Group sites may be reserved.
8) Opening Dates are shown here. Fees and maintenance start on
this date. Reservation dates will normally start a little later and
end earlier.
9) Fees and maintenance end after this date. Camping may continue
for free if a gate is not locked. But please carry out any garbage.
Leave the campground as if you were never there. Locked gates = No
Camping
*Campgrounds in the high Cascades may
vary with their opening and closing dates due to snow pack in the
mountains.
USFS campground fees include a State Sales Tax, a
County Room Tax and in some cases a state Tourism Tax that are normally
add-ons in other overnight areas. Taxes go toward supporting county and
state costs. Other expenses that are covered by fees include,
maintenance, cleaning, garbage pickup, septic pumping, insurance,
payroll, property tax, and administrative costs. In many previous years,
overall the expenses per campground exceeded the fee charged. Asset
improvement is sometimes paid through federal taxes and allocations to
the USFS. However, all operating costs are paid by
your fees or contributions by Hoodoo. Your
income taxes DO NOT pay for campground upkeep.
