    Dispersed Camping WA

    Looking for some good dispersed camp areas anywhere in WA. What areas do you like to hit in the Spring?

    So far ive only found a few good spots along the Methow river in the north cascades.

    Mountain Loop Highway outside of Granite Falls. Its something like 30 miles long and is full of dispersed camping. Its my go to spot for sure...in any season!

    Love the flag Burg!

    Thanks leiavoia, I grew up in eatonville, but never did any camping other than at campgrounds and lakes, I have been toying with the idea of doing a section of the PCT east of rainier down to adams.

    Kitsap, ive had more trouble with raccoons on the OP than bears luckily. Where have you found good dispersed camping? Every place ive camped out there was in a reserved spot, ozette loop and last fall I did the deer lake/mink lake loop by the hot springs.

    Good dispersed camping on most rivers just off NF roads or even highways, and along trails. There is less underbrush at higher elevations and towards the dry side giving more options for sites to pick from.
