Event Description
All sites have been reserved as of March 8, 2016. Please look at the comment wall to see who might be willing to share their site. For information on the Hallsted campground, the recreation.gov link is below:
The Historic Feather River Railroad route runs on the opposite side of the river from the campground. Trains climb and descend the grade at all hours-you will be falling asleep to the rumble of the diesel engines and the squeal of steel wheels on the tracks. If you have never driven through the Feather River Canyon, it is a real treat!
100 FREE things to do in Plumas County:

Those looking for hot springs can find them a couple miles up the road. Formerly known as "Woody's", they are now associated with an RV and cabin establishment. I think you need to call ahead and there is a $5 fee. Details here:

Jamez-There are some really nice FREE camp sites not too far from the Twain Store. Enjoy!

I just got off the phone with the new owner of the Twain Store. It sounds like they have made some good upgrades to what is carried there, as he put it "we now have real food and stuff that is not outdated". They have breakfast items and sandwiches for lunch. Bratwurst and beer. They have a frozen food section now. He can make salads if ordered ahead of time. He thanked me for the head's up and is looking forward to seeing us this weekend. Regis- that means you can shop for all your provisions right at the Twain Store! If you want to call them with any special requests, the owner's name is Matthew and the # is (530) 283-2130.
Oh, and he used to drive a VW bus. Nice. I invited him to come visit with us.

Unfortunately yet another work emergency is going to keep me away from going camping. I was going to try to make it on Saturday, but just can't get away. #18 is all paid for so please use it for anyone who would like it, my treat. Hope you all have a wonderful time, I'm gonna miss you
