We came from the southern east side.

There a 17 mile self guided road that you can drive down into.

We slept out in sleeping bags over night on the top area that you drive in at first.
(there's an outhouse)

Fell asleep about 9P w a full moon, woke up around 3AM w The Milky Way spanning over us.
A day, night, and morning full of *magic*!
