undeveloped car camping on Mingus or Woodschute

Post by beterarcher »

I'll be in Cottonwood in the next week or two and i was wondering if anyone knows of an undeveloped place to car camp on Mingus or Woodschute. I haven't been up in the area since I was a teen and I wouldn't want to break any rules. I figure as long as it's in National Forest I should be OK right? So basically, what I'm asking is for the second best spot because it's getting warm down here in the valley and I don't want to be too crowded by other campers. Unless they are from HAZ of course ;)

How much ground clearance do you have? Car or truck?

And you will love the Yeti's maps! :y:

I already do. I transferred the good spots to my GPS already!
