About Grizzly Flat Dispersed Camping
Grizzly Flat is a dispersed camping area next to the Yuki Wilderness and is a popular destination for hunters in the fall. It has vault toilets, few fire rings and no picnic tables. The campground is in a coniferous pine/spruce forest and is a relatively cool temperature camping site. RV trailers are not recommended. It is not paved and there is no real loop for a turn around. The area was the old Grizzly Flat Fire Station. Located off of M1 heading south from Eel River towards Lake Pillsbury. Campgrounds will be on the left hand side of the road. There is a fenced grassy area we are trying to maintain for restoration purposes and ask visitors to not camp there.
