Lost Coast camping info needed

[GSJIHAD]

Greetings fellow BMWMOA members,
I start 4 weeks off from work next week. I will just be meandering around the West with no real schedule, however, I am pretty sure I will hit the Lost Coast in Cali. Any suggestions on inexpensive or secret tent camping in that area? I'm thinking about hanging there for three or four days.

Cheers all!

I camped at the AW Way county campground a number of years ago. It's along Matolle Rd. south of Petrolia. Had the place nearly to myself. The stars were incredible, as there are no lights anywhere around. There's a small market in Petrolia, but you might do better to stock up in Eureka. Visit the Samoa Cookhouse for breakfast!

Make sure you ride "the real lost coast"... Usal Road with your GS. Lots of fun.
