Location: Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest
Trip duration: 1 night, 1 day
The area around Bolan lake in the Rogue River Siskiyou National Forest, very close to the Red Buttes wilderness is a wonderful getaway and just a short drive from Grants Pass. The area is full of alpine lakes and meadows. A network of forest service roads are waiting to be explored. Dispersed camping is plentiful. There is also a small campground at Bolan lake that costs $10 a night, or if you are lucky enough to snag a reservation for a night at the Fire Lookout , you can stay in a glass room with views that stretch from the Pacific ocean all the way to Mount Shasta! Don’t miss the Kings Saddle Helipad during wildflower season both the flowers and the views are sublime. Cellular service is spotty in this area, so download your maps before you go. Below the photo gallery you will find a map with directions!
