Lt Murray Wildlife Area

Oh what fun it always is to drive a truck off road. Nothing today was too extreme, but it was full of ruts, dips, gravel, and dirt. We are so very lucky to live with so much DNR land that is maintained for off roading and ORV vehicles. There are so many cool dispersed camping locations and endless miles of trail to explore.

I made a path over the last few days on OnX Offroad. I really wanted to hit the Gnat Flats and check out Taneum Campground. I really wanted to go to Quartz Mountain, but there just wasn’t enough time today. As it was, we left at around 9:30 and got back around 5pm.

Taneum Campground was really lovely. Nobody at all was there and I don’t know how busy it gets. I think I would prefer one of the tucked away private dispersed sites myself.

Below is a photo of one of those dispersed sites at the side of a hill with a beautiful overlook.
