[pct-l] Castle Crags State Park To Close

[Diane Soini of Santa Barbara Hikes]

I have found BLM campgrounds to be a much better deal and often nicer  
locations. Also, truly primitive camping has no campground at all.  
Dispersed camping is allowed on most national forest and BLM land.  
You can park near the PCT (or another trail) and hike in a little  
ways, too, as another way to do it. If you are truly daring, you can  
camp in a town, too. The PCT, with how it takes you under freeways  
and through culverts and things is really good at teaching you how to  
be a hobo.
